Is there any case law where a motion for appointment of counsel was denied?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Fain v. Gomez, 145 F.3d 1337 (9th Cir. 1998):

Finally, Fain contends that the district court erred in denying his motion for appointment of counsel. Despite being given numerous opportunities, Fain was unable to state a claim for relief, much less establish a likelihood of success on the merits. Rand v. Rowland, 113 F.3d 1520, 1525 (9th Cir.1997). Thus, the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying the request for counsel. Id.
