order Order on Motion to Appoint Counsel Tue 07/17 11:23 AM
ORDER denying25 Motion to Appoint Counsel. Civil litigants, unlike criminal defendants, do not enjoy a Sixth Amendment right to representation, see In re Martin-Trigona , 737 F.2d 1254, 1260 (2d Cir. 1984), and the Court cannot compel an attorney to take a civil case without a fee. Mallard v. United States District Court , 490 U.S. 296 (1989). While "[t]he determination of whether appointment of counsel is necessary rests with the discretion of the court," In re Martin-Trigona , 737 F.2d at 1260, one of the factors that the Court considers is the merits of Plaintiff's claims. Cooper v. A. Sargenti Co. , 877 F.2d 170, 172 (2d Cir. 1989) ("The factor which command[s] the most attention... [is] the merits."); Phelan v. Sullivan , 541 Fed. App'x 21, 25 (2d Cir. 2013) (summary order) (affirming district court's denial of motion for appointment of counsel where the plaintiff "had not demonstrated that his claims were likely to succeed on the merits"). Plaintiff's complaint does not establish the threshold showing for pro bono counsel at this juncture. Therefore, Plaintiff's motion to appoint pro bono counsel is denied without prejudice .
