RAYMOND P. MOORE, District Judge.
This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff's opposed motion seeking an appointment of counsel (ECF No. 69) under D.C.COLO.LAttyR 15(e)(1)(C). Plaintiff states he is seeking limited representation but his request as to matters in which he seeks representation shows it is for general representation.
The Court has discretion as to whether to appoint counsel in a civil matter. Toevs v. Reid, 685 F.3d 903, 916 (10th Cir. 2012). In exercising its discretion, the factors the Court considers include the nature and complexity of the action; the merits of the unrepresented party's claims; the demonstrated inability of the unrepresented party to retain counsel by other means; and the interests of justice to be served by an appointment. See Toevs, 685 F.3d at 916; D.C.COLO.LAttyR 15(f)(1)(B). See also Hill v. Smithkline Beecham Corp., 393 F.3d 1111, 1115 (10th Cir. 2004)). "`The burden is on the applicant to convince the court that there is sufficient merit to his claim to warrant the appointment of counsel.'" Hill, 393 F.3d at 1115 (quoting McCarthy v. Weinberg, 753 F.2d 836, 838 (10th Cir. 1985)). "Only in those extreme cases where the lack of counsel results in fundamental unfairness will the district court's decision be overturned." Id. (citation and quotation omitted).
Upon consideration of the record, the Court finds it insufficient to support the appointment of counsel. First, while Plaintiff's papers contains numerous allegations and arguments, Plaintiff is nonetheless apparently well versed with them. Moreover, the only matters remaining are whether the Court should dismiss the unserved defendants and Plaintiff's motion for reconsideration.
While the Court denies Plaintiff's request for an appointment of counsel, it provides notice to Plaintiff of the Federal Pro Se Clinic which provides free legal assistance to people representing themselves in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado. The Clinic cannot assist with criminal, bankruptcy, habeas, appeals, or any state cases. If Plaintiff wishes to avail himself of this service, he may make an appointment by telephone at 303-380-8786 or online at http://www.cobar.org/fpsc. The Clinic is located at: Alfred A. Arraj Courthouse (first floor), 901 19th Street, Denver, CO 80294.
In accordance with the foregoing, the Court ORDERS that Plaintiff's motion for appointment of counsel (ECF No. 69) is DENIED.
