Price v. Milmar Food Group LLC Doc. 54 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN SOUTHERN DIVISION Tyrone Price, Plaintiff, v. Case No. 17-cv-13011 Judith E. Levy United States District Judge Milmar Food Group, LLC, Mag. Judge R. Steven Whalen Defendant. ________________________________/ OPINION AND ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR APPOINTMENT OF COUNSEL ON APPEAL [51] AND APPLICATION TO PROCEED WITHOUT PREPAYING FEES OR COSTS ON APPEAL [53] On March 13, 2019, the Court granted in part and denied in part plaintiff Tyrone Price’s motion for relief from judgment under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b) (Dkt. 44) and dismissed his case with prejudice (Dkt. 45). Now, Price seeks the appointment of counsel on appeal (Dkt. 51) and permission to proceed without prepaying fees of costs on appeal (Dkt. 53). There is no indication that Price has filed an appeal, and so his motions are moot. But even if he has filed an appeal, only the Sixth Circuit has jurisdiction to address his motions because the Dockets.Justia.com Court reached a final decision in this case. 28 U.S.C. § 1291. If Price wishes to appeal the Court’s decision and receive any assistance of counsel or financial assistance which he believes that he is entitled to, he must proceed with the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. Accordingly, Price’s motion for appointment of counsel on appeal (Dkt. 51) is DENIED and his application to proceed without prepaying fees or costs on appeal (Dkt. 53) is DENIED. IT IS SO ORDERED. Dated: May 20, 2019 Ann Arbor, Michigan s/Judith E. Levy JUDITH E. LEVY United States District Judge CERTIFICATE OF SERVICE The undersigned certifies that the foregoing document was served upon counsel of record and any unrepresented parties via the Court’s ECF System to their respective email or First Class U.S. mail addresses disclosed on the Notice of Electronic Filing on May 20, 2019. s/Shawna Burns SHAWNA BURNS Case Manager 2
