ORDER ON MOTION

The plaintiff filed a motion for appointment of counsel on November 15, 2006 (Court

Doc. No. 3). The court notes that the facts underlying the plaintiff’s claims for relief are

relatively simple and the law applicable to such claims is not complex. Moreover, the pleadings

filed in this case establish that the plaintiff is capable of presenting the necessary elements of his

claims to this court and fail to demonstrate that there are exceptional circumstances justifying

appointment of counsel. See Bass v. Perrin, 170 F.3d 1312, 1320 (11th Cir. 1999); Kilgo v.

Ricks, 983 F.2d 189, 193 (11th Cir. 1993); Dean v. Barber, 951 F.2d 1210, 1216 (11th Cir. 1992).

Accordingly, it is 

ORDERED that the motion for appointment of counsel be and is hereby DENIED. 

Done this 15th day of November, 2006.
