IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

PETER J.D. CLARK, SR.,

Plaintiff, No. CIV S-09-1452 GEB DAD PS

vs.

POLICE OFFICER HANN, et al., ORDER

Defendants.

 /

Plaintiff has filed a third motion for continuance and for appointment of counsel. 

The court finds that plaintiff’s renewed requests lack merit for the reasons set forth in the orders

filed on February 8, 2010 (Doc. No. 67) and February 12, 2010 (Doc. No. 70). In particular,

plaintiff has not demonstrated that his claims have merit such that counsel should be appointed to

represent him, and he has offered no legal authority for a six-month delay in ruling on issues

defendants have been raising since June 16, 2009.

All pending motions to dismiss have been taken under submission and will be

addressed by the undersigned in written findings and recommendations. All parties will have an

opportunity to file written objections to the findings and recommendations, and the assigned

district judge will make the final ruling on each defendant’s motion.
