OFFICERS AND OFFICERS OF THE

GEORGIA AND FLORIDA,
Defendants.
ORDER
Before the Court is Roderick Jackson's
"Out-of-Time Motion to Appeal" the
dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 civil rights
complaint. ECF No. 17. Upon conducting
the early screening of Jackson's complaint
required by the Prison Litigation Reform
Act, the Court dismissed Jackson's
complaint as "utterly deficient" and
"bear[ingl not even the slightest hint that it
can be cured with a 'second-chance'
amendment." ECF Nos. 7; 13. The Court
also notes that Jackson moved for, and was
granted, an extension of time to object to the
Magistrate's Report and Recommendation in
this case, but he never moved for any
extension of time to appeal from or ask for
reconsideration of the Court's adoption
order. See ECF Nos. 9; 10. Jackson fails to
show any grounds for granting an out-oftime appeal of the Court's order, and the
Court finds no grounds justifying
reconsideration of that order. Accordingly,
Jackson's motion, ECF No. 17, is DENIED.
