What is the test for appointing an attorney in a personal injury case?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from James v. Gastello, Case No.: 17cv1570 H (NLS) (S.D. Cal. 2018):

The factual record is adequately developed here, and there is no indication that an attorney would have presented additional facts or a more compelling argument. Under such circumstances, appointment of counsel is simply not warranted by the interests of justice. See LaMere v. Risley, 827 F.2d 622, 626 (9th Cir. 1987).
