ORDER
DAVID S. DOTY, District Judge.
This matter is before the court upon the request by petitioner for permission to file a motion to reconsider the court's December 5, 2017, order denying petitioner's motion for a temporary restraining order. See ECF No. 16.
Motions to reconsider require the express permission of the court and will be granted only upon a showing of "compelling circumstances." D. Minn. LR 7.1(j). A motion to reconsider should not be employed to relitigate old issues but rather to "afford an opportunity for relief in extraordinary circumstances." Dale & Selby Superette & Deli v. U.S. Dep't of Agric., 838 F.Supp. 1346, 1348 (D. Minn. 1993). The court is fully satisfied that it correctly concluded that it did not have jurisdiction over petitioner's claim, and finds that compelling circumstances do not exist to grant the request.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the request for permission to file a motion to reconsider [ECF No. 17] is denied.
