Eduardo Diaz v. Dr. Marcus Moseley, M.D.
Opinion
Eduardo Diaz, proceeding pro se, filed this § 1983 suit alleging civil rights violations by Defendant, Dr. Moseley, and other unidentified Defendants. He appeals the district court’s (1) grant of summary judgment for Dr. Moseley, (2) dismissal of the claim for failure to exhaust his administrative remedies, (3) denial of his motion for appointment of counsel, and (4) denial of his motion to compel discovery. 1
After hearing oral argument and reviewing the record developed by Appellant proceeding pro se before the district court, we have determined the record is not sufficiently developed to allow us to review the issues in this case. 2 Where appellate review is “hampered because the record is ambiguous due to inadequate development of the critical facts,” we have held it proper to remand to the district court. United States v. Robinson, 625 F.2d 1211, 1217 n. *726 7 (5th Cir. 1980) (citations omitted). 3
VACATED AND REMANDED.
. This Court is aware that on October 30, 2006, the Supreme Court heard oral argument in the cases of Jones v. Bock, 135 Fed.Appx. 837 (6th Cir. 2005), cert. granted - U.S. -, 126 S.Ct. 1462, 164 L.Ed.2d 246 (2006), argued Oct. 30, 2006, and Williams v. Overton, 136 Fed.Appx. 859 (6th Cir. 2005), cert. granted - U.S. -, 126 S.Ct. 1463, 164 L.Ed.2d 246 (2006), argued Oct. 30, 2006.
. For example, we are not able to determine the factual basis for the exhaustion issues from the current record on appeal.
. The Court appreciates the fine representation of appellate appointed counsel and hopes he would consider accepting appointment to continue to represent Appellant in subsequent proceedings.
