Harris v. Carlson
Harris v. Carlson
Opinion of the Court
ORDER
In both of the above entitled cases, plaintiff claims, inter alia, that her release from prison has been delayed because the Parole Commission retaliated against her for suing the government over an alleged forced surgery and alleged medical malpractice. On February 26, 1982, the Court issued an Order pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3006A(g) directing the Federal Public Defender for the Northern District of California to represent plaintiff Harris with respect to that claim. The Federal Public Defender now moves to be relieved as counsel of record on the ground that, having reviewed plaintiff’s files and conducted substantial legal research, he has concluded that “there is no evidence contained in any of [plaintiff’s] files that would support her claim...” (Hansen Decl., ¶ 7.) Plaintiff has given her counsel permission to withdraw from these cases.
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the motion of plaintiff’s counsel, Geoffrey A. Hansen, to be relieved as counsel of record is granted.
IT IS FURTHER HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff’s request for an appointment of counsel is denied.
