On February 4, 2016 and March 8, 2016, respectively, this Court denied (at ECF

20

Nos. 179 and 180) Plaintiff’s reconsideration requests (ECF Nos. 173 and 157) as to

21

orders made by the assigned Magistrate Judge in this matter and filed on April 16, 2015

22

and July 14, 2015, respectively. See ECF Nos. 144 and 126. Plaintiff’s reconsideration

23

requests were denied on grounds that, after reviewing the entire file, this Court could not

say that the Magistrate Judge’s challenged decisions were clearly erroneous. Then, on
April 1, 2016 and April 18, 2016, Plaintiff filed two additional requests that the court
reconsider its prior denials of reconsideration. Plaintiff has cited no authority authorizing
successive reconsideration requests, and there is none. Plaintiff's additional motions for

The Court notes that to the extent Plaintiff’s April 1, 2016 reconsideration request asks the Court
to review and consider additional exhibits pertaining to a continued stay of this matter, those exhibits have
now been submitted by a supplemental filing (ECF No. 181) and were considered by the Magistrate Judge
in connection with Plaintiff’s Eighth Motion to Stay. See August 23, 2016 Order and Findings and
Recommendations, ECF No. 190, 3:18-4:11. Consequently, to the extent Plaintiff’s reconsideration
request asked the Court to consider those exhibits, that request has now been rendered moot.
