ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION (DOC. 24)

The court dismissed Plaintiff's complaint on February 5, 2019. Doc. 18. On April 23, 2019, Plaintiff filed a motion for reconsideration. "A motion for rehearing or reconsideration must be filed within 14 days after entry of the judgment or order." LR 7.1(h)(1). The standard for granting a motion for reconsideration is as follows:

Generally, and without restricting the court's discretion, the court will not grant motions for rehearing or reconsideration which merely present the same issues ruled upon by the court, either expressly or by reasonable implication. The movant shall not only demonstrate a palpable defect by which the court and the parties have been misled but also show that correcting the defect will result in a different disposition of the case.

LR 7.1(h)(3).

The court will deny Plaintiff's motion for two reasons. First, Plaintiff's motion is untimely. Second, Plaintiff's motion does not allege a legal or factual basis for the court to reconsider its previous ruling.

Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff's motion for reconsideration is DENIED.
