ORDER: Plaintiff has paid the $400 filing fee. As stated below, the Court has conducted its initial review of the complaint and finds that it states colorable claims against the Defendants listed therein.

Before the Marshal attempts service, however, Plaintiff must return completed service forms to the Court. Plaintiff should submit completed service forms within 35 days of this order. Failure to comply may result in the dismissal of unserved Defendants, as well as this case for failing to prosecute it. Plaintiff's motion for an attorney 5 is denied without prejudice.

ORDER: Plaintiff's current motion seeking the recruitment of counsel 34 is denied. This case is still in its early stages, not all Defendants have been served and, given the pending motion to dismiss, it appears that the parties have engaged in little to no discovery. There does not appear to be a need for counsel at this time. See Romanelli v. Suliene, 615 F.3d 847, 851-52 (7th Cir. 2010). At present, Plaintiff must respond to Defendants' motion to dismiss. With respect to Defendants' argument that Plaintiff's Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA") claim should be dismissed, the issue is essentially a technical one about whether ADA claims can be brought against Defendants in their individual capacities or in federal court. Defendants do not seek dismissal of Plaintiff's claims under the Rehabilitation Act, which allows the same type of relief as the ADA. Even if the ADA claims are dismissed, Plaintiff will still have his Rehabilitation Act claims, which provide the same opportunity for relief. Jaros v. Illinois Dept. of Corrections, 684 F.3d 667, 672 (7th Cir. 2012) (ADA claim was dismissed where a prisoner asserted both ADA and Rehabilitation Act claims, but he could "have but one recovery"). As to Plaintiff's Eighth Amendment claims, he should address how each Defendant was personally involved in depriving him of his basic needs. Kuhn v. Goodlow, 678 F.3d 552, 556 (7th Cir. 2012) ("an individual cannot be held liable in a § 1983 action unless he caused or participated in an alleged constitutional deprivation"). To assist Plaintiff, the Court extends the due date of his response to May 2, 2018. Defendants' reply is due May 18, 2018. Signed by the Honorable Thomas M. Durkin on 4/2/2018. Mailed notice.
