CAROL BAGLEY AMON, Chief District Judge.
On February 6, 2012, plaintiff Gerardo Sanchez filed a motion asking the Court to reconsider its July 7, 2011 order denying his motion for a default judgment and seeking disqualification of counsel for the Foundry Defendants
Sanchez's motion to reconsider is based on a statement made by Kimberly Walentin, one of the Foundry Defendants, at an unrelated bankruptcy proceeding. At that proceeding, Sanchez appeared as a creditor and asked Walentin if she knew Jeffrey Basso, the attorney who has entered an appearance on her behalf in this action. Walentin answered that she had never met Basso, appearing to believe that Basso was in fact Sanchez's attorney.
Although Walentin's statements at the bankruptcy hearing are arguably new facts upon which Sanchez may move for reconsideration of a Court order, see Rullan v. New York City Dep't of Sanitation, 2012 WL 76926, *2 (S.D.N.Y. 2012) (explaining standard for reconsideration under Local Civil Rule 6.2), the Court has reviewed the Foundry Defendants' submissions— including the affidavits of Walentin and the other individual Foundry Defendants—and remains satisfied that counsel had secured and has continually retained the consent of all Foundry Defendants to its representation.
Sanchez's motion is to reconsider is denied. Further, in light of the Court's recently-issued Memorandum and Order granting the Foundry Defendants' motion to dismiss all claims against them, the Clerk of Court is directed to terminate the Foundry Defendants from this action.
SO ORDERED.
