Defendant.

Putative claimant Raashida Moore-Brisco ("Moore") has filed a motion styled as "Claimant Raashida J. Moore-Brisco's Request and/or in the Alternative Motion for Reconsideration of Her Request for Order Directing Return of Defendant $73,562.00 in United States Currency FRCP RULE 60 relief, 46 objection, and Rule 41(b) DISMISSAL PURSUANT TO 18 USC § 983(a)(3)(A) & (B)." Docket 102. Under Civil Local Rule 73(a), a motion for reconsideration cannot be filed absent prior leave of court. Moore failed to seek or obtain permission to file a motion for reconsideration. In addition, she failed to properly notice her motion, as required by Civil Local Rule 7-2. The Court need not consider motions filed in violation of applicable procedural rules. See Swanson v. U.S. Forest Serv., 87 F.3d 339, 345 (9th Cir. 1996). Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT: 1. 2. Moore's motion for reconsideration is DENIED, without prejudice. The Clerk shall strike Docket 102 from the record.

IT IS SO ORDERED. Dated: August 24, 2010 SAUNDRA BROWN ARMSTRONG United States District Judge
