UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MILES ORLANDO BONTY,

Plaintiff,

v.

F. REYNOSO, et al.,

Defendants.

 /

CASE NO. 1:07-cv-00732-AWI-SMS PC

ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR STAY AND

FOR LEAVE TO SEEK APPOINTMENT OF

COUNSEL

(Doc. 14)

Plaintiff Miles Orlando Bonty (“plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On December 19, 2007, plaintiff

filed a motion seeking a stay of this action pending completion of his transfer to another institution

and seeking leave to file a motion for the appointment of counsel.

Subsequent to the filing of the instant motion, plaintiff’s transfer to the California

Correctional Institution was completed, rendering moot plaintiff’s request for a stay. Further,

plaintiff does not need leave of court to file a motion seeking the appointment of counsel. For these

reasons, plaintiff’s motion is HEREBY DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
