042524P.pdf   02/14/2006  James Phillips  v.  Jasper County Jail
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  04-2524
   Western District of Missouri   
   [PUBLISHED] [Arnold, Author, with Beam and Riley, Circuit Judges]
Prisoner case - prisoner civil rights. District court did not abuse its discretion by denying motion for appointment of counsel, as the case was not factually complex, and plaintiff had a fair opportunity to present his claims; at most, plaintiff's claims against treating physician made out a case for malpractice and did not rise to the level of a constitutional violation; district court erred in granting summary judgment to jail employees on claim they violated plaintiff's fourth amendment rights by failing to administer his anti-seizure medicine properly and by assigning him to a top bunk despite his known seizure disorder.
