Court: 6th Circuit Court (Published Opinions)

Attorneys 1: ON BRIEF: Cara L. Staley Rafferty, Renée A. Bacchus, UNITED STATES ATTORNEY’S OFFICE, Cleveland, Ohio, for Appellee.

Attorneys 2: ON BRIEF: Regina Bryant, Cleveland, Ohio, pro se.

Judge(s): COLE, McKEAGUE, and NALBANDIAN, Circuit Judges

Court Appealed: Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio at Cleveland

Regina Bryant, a pro se Ohio plaintiff, appeals the district court’s judgment in favor of the Secretary of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) on her federal employment-discrimination and retaliation complaint. Bryant moves the court for appointment of counsel on appeal. This case has been referred to a panel of the court that, upon examination, unanimously agrees that oral argument is not needed. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a). For the reasons that follow, we deny Bryant’s motion for appointment of counsel and affirm the district court’s judgment.

For these reasons, we AFFIRM the district court’s judgment and DENY Bryant’s motion for appointment of counsel.
