ORDER
Sheryl Taylor moves for the court to “enter an order for
respondent/the Merit Systems Protection Board . . . to
appoint or assign counsel.” She moves separately for oral
argument.
The court generally does not appoint counsel on appeal
and sees no grounds for doing so here. See Taylor v. Merit
Sys. Protection Bd., 2013 WL 3613934, at *4 (Fed. Cir. July
16, 2013) (noting that Taylor had filed “numerous motions”
seeking appointment of counsel that were denied and that

she had “no constitutional right to counsel for her present
appeal, and this court has no means by which it could
appoint counsel to represent her.”).
Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED THAT:
(1) The motion to appoint counsel is denied.
(2) The motion for oral argument is deferred for
consideration by the merits panel assigned to hear the
case.
(3) A copy of the papers relating to the motion for oral
argument and this order shall be transmitted to the
merits panel assigned to decide this case.
