MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION

v.

Defendants.

Plaintiff Thomas Goolsby (“Plaintiff”) is a California state prisoner proceeding pro se and in
forma pauperis in this civil action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983.

19

On January 13, 2016, the Court issued Findings and Recommendations regarding

20

Defendants’ motion for summary judgment. Objections are due on or before February 15, 2016.

21

On January 25, 2016, Plaintiff filed a motion for reconsideration. He states that if the

22

Magistrate Judge does not “overturn” his Findings and Recommendations, he will file objections.

23

Plaintiff’s motion is DISREGARDED. At this stage of the proceedings, objections are the

24

proper procedural tool for opposing the Findings and Recommendations. A motion for

25

reconsideration is not proper until the District Court rules on the Finding and Recommendations.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
