UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KELLY FRITHIOF SUNDBERG,

Petitioner,

CASE NO. 16cv3127WQH

 

vs. ORDER

HAROLD OREOL,

Respondent.

HAYES, Judge,

In the matter before the Court, Petitioner has moved the Court at a prior time to

appoint counsel to litigate his Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus under 28 U.S.C.

§2254. See ECF No. 2 and ECF No. 18. 

18 U.S.C. § 3006A(a)(2)(B) provides, “Whenever the . . . court determines that

the interest of justice so require, representation may be provided for any financially

eligible person who . . . (B) is seeking relief under section 2241, 2254, or 2255 of title

28.” 18 U.S.C. § 3006A(a)(2)(B). A review of the record in this case shows that

Petitioner has no legal experience or legal assistance and that the legal issues in the case

are difficult. The Court concludes that the interests of justice support the appointment

of counsel. 

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Court appoints David Zugman to represent

Petitioner under the Criminal Justice Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3006A in this habeas

proceedings. The Clerk of the Court shall provide a copy of this order to David

Zugman, the Petitioner, and the Respondent.
