ORDER

Before the Court is Plaintiff's Motion to Clarify in which he asks the Court to determine the sufficiency of Defendants' Interrogatory response and "explain" Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 33 to him. (Doc. no. 30.) In essence, Plaintiff asks the Court to give him legal advice, something it may not do. See Mikell v. United States, No. CV 609-065, 2009 WL 3201769, at *1 (S.D. Ga. Oct. 6, 2009) ("Federal courts may not provide legal advice to a pro se litigant, just as they may not provide legal advice to a party represented by an attorney[.]") (citation omitted). Accordingly, the Court DENIES Plaintiff's motion. (Doc. no. 30.)

SO ORDERED.
