UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

STEWART MANAGO,

Plaintiff,

v.

BRAD WILLIAMS, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:07-cv-02290 TLN KJN P

ORDER APPOINTING LIMITED PURPOSE 

COUNSEL FOR PURPOSES OF 

SETTLEMENT

Plaintiff is a state prisoner, proceeding through appointed counsel, with a civil rights

action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This action proceeds against defendants Kelly, Jaffee, 

Martin, Vance, and Kennedy, who are represented by counsel, and Mary Brockett, who is 

proceeding pro se.

 The court has determined that a settlement conference would be beneficial in this case 

and will set a settlement conference to occur before a randomly selected magistrate judge. The 

court has also determined that it would be beneficial for all parties to be represented by counsel at 

the settlement conference. Therefore, the court will appoint counsel for pro se defendant Mary 

Brockett, for the limited purpose of assisting Ms. Brockett with preparing for and participating in 

the settlement conference. A. Peter Rausch has been selected from the court’s pro bono attorney 

panel to represent defendant Mary Brockett and has agreed to be appointed.
