Plaintiff Sergio Alejandro Gámez (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and

June 29, 2010, Plaintiff filed a Request for Hearing Date seeking a hearing date for his Motion to

Compel Discovery and a Motion for Appointment of Counsel. (Doc. No. 35.) Thereafter, on

July 13, 2010, the Court held a telephonic Status Conference to determine the status of the case

and discovery proceedings. 

After consulting the parties and attorneys of record, and being advised of the status of the

case, Plaintiff’s Request for a Hearing Date for a Motion to Compel and Motion for

Appointment of Counsel if GRANTED. The Court determines the date of August 10, 2010 is

appropriate for a telephonic hearing on a properly filed Motion to Compel Discovery and a

properly filed Motion for Appointment of Counsel. The Court Orders the parties to appear for a

telephonic Motion Hearing on August 10, 2010 at 10:30 a.m. Defense counsel shall initiate
