UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

LARRY GIRALDES,

Plaintiff,

v.

JEFFREY BEARD,

Defendant.

No. 2:14-cv-1780 CKD P

ORDER APPOINTING COUNSEL

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in a civil rights action 

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On February 26, 2015, plaintiff filed a motion to appoint counsel. 

(ECF No. 17.) The court finds that the appointment of counsel is warranted. Alan J. Reinach has

been selected from the court’s pro bono attorney panel to represent plaintiff and he has agreed to 

be appointed. In light of this development, the court will vacate the March 29, 2015 discovery 

deadline to allow the parties’ counsel to meet and confer on a proposed discovery schedule.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiff’s motion for the appointment of counsel (ECF No. 17) is granted.

2. Alan J. Reinach is appointed as counsel in the above entitled matter.

3. Appointed counsel shall notify Sujean Park at (916) 930-4278, or via email at 

spark@caed.uscourts.gov if he has any questions related to the appointment.

4. The Clerk of the Court is directed to serve a copy of this order upon Alan J. Reinach,
