(WO -- Do Not Publish)

ORDER
Before the court is Plaintiff Alvin Thomas’s (“Plaintiff”) Post-Trial Motion for
Reconsideration and Hearing on the Merits (Doc. # 75), which requests the court to
reconsider its entry of summary judgment in favor of Defendant Travelers Casualty and
Surety Company of America (“Defendant”) and against Plaintiff as to all claims alleged in
Plaintiff’s complaint. On September 30, 2014, the court ordered Defendant to show cause
why Plaintiff’s motion for reconsideration should not be granted. (Doc. # 77.) Defendant
responded to the court’s show cause order (Doc. # 77), arguing that none of the arguments
or evidence presented in Plaintiff’s motion warrants reconsideration of the court’s finding
at summary judgment that Plaintiff’s claims are time-barred.
Based on the foregoing, and having considered the arguments of the parties, the
applicable law, and the record as a whole, the court agrees with Defendant, and Plaintiff’s
Motion for Reconsideration (Doc. # 75) is DENIED.
DONE this 3rd day of November, 2014.
