UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS
CLINT PHILLIPS III,
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No. 3:17-cv-01079-JPG-SCW

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Defendant.
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
J. PHIL GILBERT, DISTRICT JUDGE
Plaintiff Clint Phillips III has filed a motion to re-open this case. (ECF No. 17.) The
Court previously dismissed Phillips’s claim with prejudice for failure to pay the filing fee (ECF
No. 15), but Phillips has since paid that fee. So for good cause shown, the Court GRANTS IN
PART Phillips’s motion insofar as it asks the Court to re-open this case (ECF No. 17),
VACATES its prior dismissal and judgment (ECF Nos. 15, 16), and DIRECTS the Clerk of
Court to RE-OPEN this case. The Court DENIES IN PART Phillips’s motion insofar as it asks
the Court to grant him summary judgment.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
DATED: JULY 24, 2018
