ORDER ACCEPTING AND ADOPTING
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
This Court has considered, without hearing, the Magistrate Judge's Report and
Recommendation. ECF No. 20. Rather than file objections, Petitioner has moved for
the appointment of counsel. ECF No. 24. But Plaintiff is not entitled to the
appointment 	of 	counsel 	in 	this 	civil 	action, 	nor 	has 	he 	demonstrated 	that
extraordinary circumstances warrant the appointment of counsel. Accordingly, upon
consideration, no objections having been filed by the parties,
IT IS ORDERED:
The report and recommendation, ECF No. 20, is accepted and adopted as
this Court’s opinion. Petitioner’s motion to appoint counsel, ECF No. 24, is
DENIED. The Clerk shall enter judgment stating, “This case is DISMISSED
without prejudice for Petitioner’s failure to comply with multiple Court Orders.”
