IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF UTAH JED NELSON SAVAGE, Plaintiff, MEMORANDUM DECISION & DISMISSAL ORDER v. OFFICER CHRIS ROBERTS et al., Defendants. Case No. 2:16-CV-341-JNP District Judge Jill N. Parrish Plaintiff, Jed Nelson Savage, filed a prisoner civil-rights complaint. He now moves for appointed counsel (for a second time). And if counsel is not appointed, he moves the Court to dismiss this action. The Court has reviewed its order denying Plaintiff’s first motion for appointed counsel and concludes that nothing has changed. On the same grounds, it therefore denies Plaintiff’s second motion for appointed counsel. Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(2) allows the Court to dismiss a case "at the plaintiff’s request." The Court has carefully reviewed Plaintiff’s motion and other materials on the docket. Good cause appearing, IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff’s: (1) second motion for appointed counsel is DENIED. (See Docket Entry # 12.) (2) motion to dismiss his complaint is GRANTED. (See Docket Entry # 12.) This case is CLOSED. DATED this 20th day of June, 2017. BY THE COURT: JUDGE JILL N. PARRISH United States District Court
