SID LANDAU

Plaintiff,

v.

W.T. VOSS, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:07-cv-00815-AWI-DLB PC

ORDER APPOINTING COUNSEL

Plaintiff Sid Landau (“Plaintiff”) is a civil detainee proceeding pro se and in forma 

pauperis in this civil action pursuant to 42 U.S.C § 1983. Plaintiff has requested that the Court 

appoint counsel to represent him in this action. Recently, Plaintiff wrote a letter to the Court 

stating he could not remember directions given to him during the Court’s April 28, 2014 hearing. 

The Court finds that the appointment of counsel for Plaintiff is warranted. 

Philip C. Bourdette has been selected from the court’s pro bono attorney panel to 

represent Plaintiff. Mr. Bourdette has accepted the appointment. The Court will set a status 

conference with Mr. Bourdette and the attorney for Defendants to determine an available trial 

date.
