GEORGE PAZUNIAK, et al.,

Re: ECF No. 83

Defendants.

United States District Court
Northern District of California

Currently before the Court is a document filed by Plaintiff Lakshmi Arunachalam titled

13

“Plaintiff Dr. Lakshmi Arunachalam’s Request for Re-consideration of Motion to Disqualify

14

Honorable Judge Jon S. Tigar Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 455 and 28 U.S.C. § 144.” ECF No. 83.

15

Civil Local Rule 7-9 governs motions for reconsideration and Rule 7-9(b) provides three grounds

16

for bringing such a motion. Although Arunachalam does not invoke Rule 7-9, she appears to

17

argue that the Court’s previous order at ECF No. 79 represented “a manifest failure by the Court to

18

consider material facts or dispositive legal arguments.” Arunachalam’s request for reconsideration

19

asserts that the Court “failed to note” numerous considerations bearing upon the propriety of

20

disqualification.

After review of Arunachalam’s request, the Court concludes the prior order did not contain
any “manifest error.” The request is denied.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
