Wanda Lee v. Bureau of Prisons
Wanda Lee v. Bureau of Prisons
Opinion
Wanda Lee appeals the district court’s denial of her request for appointment of counsel. We AFFIRM.
Lee sued various prison officials contending that their treatment and housing of her led to her infection with MRSA. She requested appointment of counsel; the district court denied the request and her motion for reconsideration.
Appellees moved to dismiss this appeal as frivolous after Lee filed her brief on the merits; Lee filed a response to the motion. We determine that it is unnecessary to decide the motion because Lee’s brief does not demonstrate that the district court’s conclusion that she was not entitled to counsel is in error. Accordingly, we AFFIRM the district court’s order and DENY AS MOOT the Appellees’ Motion to Dismiss and for Extension of Time to file Appellee’s Brief.
Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
