IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO Honorable Marcia S. Krieger Civil Action No. 06-cv-01702-MSK-BNB WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A., Plaint iff, v. CONNIE RICOTTA, Defendant. ______________________________________________________________________________ OPINION AND ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION ______________________________________________________________________________ THIS MATTER comes before the Court pursuant to the Defendant' pro se Motion for s Reconsideration (# 4). The Court' docket does not reflect whether the prior remand order has been served and s carried out. If it has, the Court lacks jurisdiction to consider any further filings. See e.g. Aetna U.S. Healthcare, Inc. v Hoechst Aktiengesekkschaft, 67 F.Supp.2d 1242, 1245 (D. Kan. 1999). Even assuming the Court had jurisdiction to reconsider, it would nevertheless deny the Defendant' motion. It is undisputed that the claims asserted on the face of the Complaint ­ s pro ceedings under Colorado' foreclosure laws ­do not present a federal question. Franchise s Tax Board v. Construction Laborers Vacation Trust For Southern California, 463 U.S. 1, 9-11 (1983), citing Taylor v. Anderson, 234 U.S. 74, 75-76 (1914). The Defendant' assertion that s proceedings in Colorado courts are federal in nature is frivolous, even by the liberal standards applicable to pro se pleadings.
