Charles Salmon v. Corpus Christi Independent School District

Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit

Decided September 20, 1990No. 90-2380PublishedCited by 28 opinions

1Per curiam

Charles Salmon appeals from the district court’s order denying his request for appointed counsel. Salmon is a school teacher who complains of age discrimination by four public school districts. Because we find no error in the district court’s application in this case of the four factors we set forth in Ulmer v. Chancellor, 691 F.2d 209 (5th Cir.1982), for determining whether exceptional circumstances require the appointment of counsel in section 1983 civil rights actions and no error in the court’s alternate use of the standard for appointment of counsel in Title YII cases, we affirm.
