IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF KANSAS

KENDRA ROSS,
Plaintiff,
Case No. 17-2547-DDC-TJJ
v.
ROYALL JENKINS, et al.,
Defendants.

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
On May 23, 2018, the court entered default judgment against defendants Royall Jenkins,
The Value Creators, Inc. f/k/a The United Nation of Islam, Inc., The Value Creators LLC, and
The Value Creators, Inc. See Doc. 41. Almost a month later, on June 19, 2018, Mr. Jenkins
filed a pro se1 “Motion for New Trial” (Doc. 42). Plaintiff has filed a Response to this Motion.
Doc. 47. Mr. Jenkins has not filed a Reply.2
Plaintiff has responded with a motion of her own—a Motion for Writ of Execution (Doc.
45). The court will address Mr. Jenkins’s Motion first, and then, based on that ruling, address
plaintiff’s filing.
Before the court analyzes Mr. Jenkins’s arguments, the court must consider a limitation
on legal representation. While Mr. Jenkins may represent himself pro se, he also purports to

When a party proceeds pro se, the court must construe his pleadings liberally and hold them to a less
stringent standard than those drafted by lawyers. Hall v. Bellmon, 935 F.2d 1106, 1110 (10th Cir. 1991).
But the court does not become an advocate for that party. Id. Nor does the party’s pro se status excuse
him from complying with the court’s rules or facing the consequences of noncompliance. Nielsen v.
Price, 17 F.3d 1276, 1277 (10th Cir. 1994).
2

Plaintiff filed her Response on July 2, 2018. See Doc. 47. The local rules gave Mr. Jenkins 14 days
from service of the Response to file and serve a Reply. See D. Kan. Rule 6.1(d)(1). Thus, Mr. Jenkins’s
deadline was July 16, 2018. That deadline now has passed, and Mr. Jenkins has not filed a Reply.

make his motion on behalf of the other defendants. But the other defendants are business
organizations. And generally, in our court, only an attorney admitted to our bar may represent a
business organization. Harrison v. Wahatoyas, L.L.C., 253 F.3d 552, 556 (10th Cir. 2001)
(citing Flora Constr. Co. v. Fireman’s Fund Ins. Co., 307 F.2d 413, 414 (10th Cir. 1962) (“The
rule is well established that a corporation can appear in a court of record only by an attorney at
law.”)). Accordingly, Mr. Jenkins cannot seek relief for the other defendants. If any defendant
business organization wishes to seek relief from the default judgment, it must do so through a
properly admitted member of this court’s bar.
I.

Mr. Jenkins’s Motion for New Trial (Doc. 42)

In essence, Mr. Jenkins’s Motion asks the court to vacate the default judgment it entered
against him. It relies on four different rules and argues that each one entitles him to relief from
the judgment. The next four sections—A, B, C, and D—address each rule that Mr. Jenkins’s
motion invokes. They also explain why none of them warrant any relief from the judgment.
A.

Rule 59

The first rule Mr. Jenkins invokes is Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(a)(1)(B). This rule allows the
court, after a nonjury trial, to grant a new trial on all or some of the issues. Fed. R. Civ. P.
59(a)(1)(B). But no trial—jury or nonjury—has occurred in this case. So, Rule 59(a)(1) cannot
provide Mr. Jenkins a basis for relief here. See Norman v. Randolph, 597 F. App’x 988, 989
(10th Cir. 2015) (“[T]here was no trial, so Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(a) was inapplicable.”).
Construing Mr. Jenkins’s filing liberally—as it must—the court also considers Mr.
Jenkins’s arguments under Rule 59(e). First, the court must assess whether Mr. Jenkins’s motion
is timely. Rule 59(e) provides Mr. Jenkins 28 days after the entry of judgment to file a motion to
alter or amend judgment. Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e). The court entered default judgment against Mr.

2

Jenkins on May 23, 2018. Doc. 41. Plaintiff filed this Motion on June 19, 2018—27 days later.
And so, Mr. Jenkins’s Motion is timely under Rule 59(e).
This conclusion leads to the substance of Rule 59(e). “Grounds for granting a Rule 59(e)
motion include ‘(1) an intervening change in the controlling law, (2) new evidence previously
unavailable, and (3) the need to correct clear error or prevent manifest injustice.’” Somerlott v.
Cherokee Nation Distribs., Inc., 686 F.3d 1144, 1153 (10th Cir. 2012) (quoting Servants of
Paraclete v. Does, 204 F.3d 1005, 1012 (10th Cir. 2000)). A Rule 59(e) motion is appropriate
when the court has “misapprehended the facts, a party’s position, or the controlling law.” Id.
But it is not appropriate to “advance arguments that could have been raised in prior briefing.” Id.
Mr. Jenkins never asserts any intervening change in controlling law, or claims he now has
access to new evidence previously unavailable to him. Giving his motion the most generous
interpretation possible, the court construes it to seek relief based on a need to correct clear error
or prevent manifest injustice. Mr. Jenkins’s motion quotes Aetna Casualty & Surety Company v.
Yeatts, which outlines a court’s power to grant a new trial to avoid an outcome that is
“manifestly against justice.” 122 F.2d 350, 353 (4th Cir. 1941), overruled on other grounds by
Gasperini v. Ctr. for Humanities, Inc., 518 U.S. 415, 438–39 (1996). But the problem is that Mr.
Jenkins never explains why the judgment against him contradicts the interests of justice or
commits a clear error.3 Mr. Jenkins has provided no basis for relief under Rule 59(e), and the
court thus denies that aspect of his Motion.

3

Mr. Jenkins quotes the following portion of Yeatts in support of his motion to show that the courts
have the “power to examine the whole case on the law and the evidence, with a view to securing a result,
not merely legal, but also not manifestly against justice[]— a power exercised in pursuance of a sound
judicial discretion, without which the jury system would be a capricious and intolerable tyranny, which no
people could long endure.” 122 F.2d 350 at 353.

3

B.

Rule 60(b)

Mr. Jenkins also seeks relief from the default judgment under Rule 60(b). This is the
right rule to invoke when one seeks to set aside a default judgment. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(c)
(“The court may set aside . . . a final default judgment under Rule 60(b).”).
“Relief under Rule 60(b) is extraordinary and may only be granted in exceptional
circumstances.” Bud Brooks Trucking, Inc. v. Bill Hodges Trucking Co., 909 F.2d 1437, 1440
(10th Cir. 1990) (citation omitted). A losing party may not invoke Rule 60(b) to present new
arguments that the party could have raised in earlier filings. See Van Skiver v. United States, 952
F.2d 1241, 1244 (10th Cir. 1991) (discussing requirements of a Rule 60(b) motion). And a party
seeking relief from a judgment bears the burden to demonstrate each prerequisite for relief. Id. at
1243–44 (explaining that a movant must show “exceptional circumstances by satisfying one or
more of Rule 60(b)’s six grounds for relief from judgment”); see also Cessna Fin. Corp. v.
Bielenberg Masonry Contracting, Inc., 715 F.2d 1442, 1444 (10th Cir. 1983) (noting that Rule
60 “seeks to strike a delicate balance between two countervailing impulses: the desire to
preserve the finality of judgments and the incessant command of the court’s conscience that
justice be done in light of all the facts” (internal citations and quotations omitted)).
Still, these competing interests demand that the court consider Rule 60(b) motions
carefully in the default judgment context. The leading commentators define these interests this
way: “Despite the strength of the policies supporting the use of the default penalty, federal
judges view default judgments with disfavor. This is because they favor trials on the merits with
full participation by the parties.” 10A Charles Alan Wright, Arthur R. Miller, Federal Practice
and Procedure § 2693 (4th ed. 2018); cf. id. (“Both the default entry and judgment play an
important role in . . . [maintaining] . . . an orderly, efficient judicial system. They are significant

4

weapons for enforcing compliance with the rules of procedure and facilitating the speedy
determination of litigation. The default procedure offers a useful remedy to a good faith litigant
who is confronted by an obstructionist adversary.”). These interests are particularly important
when, as here, “substantial rights are involved . . . [or] when large sums of money are claimed.”
Id.
Sorting out these competing interests here isn’t particularly easy. The court, no doubt,
has entered a large judgment against Mr. Jenkins. And our court is no different than most federal
courts: it prefers to decide cases on their merits—and not by forfeit. But here, this general
preference must yield because of the events this case’s record establishes. The record
demonstrates that Mr. Jenkins decided to forego his right to participate in the case.
Plaintiff filed her suit on September 15, 2017. Ten days later, her service of process
agent served Mr. Jenkins by leaving the Summons and a copy of plaintiff’s Complaint with a
“male resident [who] refused [to provide his] name” at a specific address on North 10th Street in
Kansas City, Kansas. Doc. 10. This unidentified recipient told the process server, “We already
received this, this is overkill.” Id. And the court need not guess whether Mr. Jenkins actually
received the Summons and Complaint that the process server left at his abode on North 10th
Street. The record firmly establishes that he did.
About two weeks after the process server left the Summons and Complaint, Mr. Jenkins
filed a Motion for Writ of Certiorari. Doc. 18 (filed October 11, 2017). This filing contains a
signature purporting to be the signature of defendant Royall Jenkins. The signature matches the
one affixed to Mr. Jenkins’s Motion for a New Trial. See Doc. 42 at 3. Also, Mr. Jenkins’s
Motion for Writ of Certiorari listed a particular street address on North 10th Street in Kansas
City, Kansas, as his address. It is the same 10th Street address where plaintiff’s process server

5

had served the Summons and Complaint on September 25, 2017. Indeed, it appears that Mr.
Jenkins continues to live at that address today. In June 2018, Mr. Jenkins filed his Motion asking
the court to appoint counsel for him. Doc. 43. He submitted with it an Affidavit supporting his
request for appointed counsel. And while Mr. Jenkins’s Affidavit was filed properly under seal,
it again uses the same North 10th Street address where plaintiff’s process server had delivered
the Summons and Complaint at the outset of the case. Doc. 44 (sealed) at 1.
Mr. Jenkins’s 2017 filing (Doc. 18)—his only response to the Summons and
Complaint—reveal him to be an “obstructionist adversary.” Wright & Miller, supra, at § 2693.
This Motion for Writ of Certiorari is something of a word salad, mixing random legal terms with
the case’s caption. Whatever the filing’s purpose, in no way does it constitute a proper response
to the Summons and Complaint that Mr. Jenkins received.
Indeed, the court told Mr. Jenkins as much. On October 16, 2017, United States
Magistrate Judge Teresa J. James entered an Order denying Mr. Jenkins’s Motion for Writ of
Certiorari. Doc. 19. After explaining that our court possesses no authority to issue that kind of
writ, Judge James warned Mr. Jenkins that: (1) all defendants—including him—had been served
with process; (2) the time to answer or otherwise respond to the Complaint had passed; and (3)
Mr. Jenkins’s Motion did not qualify as an adequate response to the Complaint. Doc. 19 at 1, 2.
Mr. Jenkins did not heed Judge James’s warning. Indeed, over the next eight months, he
never appeared for any court proceedings or made any filings. During this time, the court twice
noticed a hearing on plaintiff’s Motion for Default Judgment. Docs. 25, 29. Consistent with its
practice for pro se litigants who have not registered for CM/ECF4, the Clerk of the Court sent
hard copy mailings of these notices to Mr. Jenkins. The Clerk dispatched the notices to the

4

Mr. Jenkins later registered for CM/ECF, but not until June 21, 2018. See Docket Annotation between Docs. 44
and 45.

6

North 10th Street address that Mr. Jenkins had provided in his Motion. Nonetheless, the United
States Postal Service returned the first of these two mailings to the court. The Postal Service
advised that it had tried delivery at the address, but the recipient—Mr. Jenkins—was “not
known,” and the Postal Service was “unable to forward” the mailing. Doc. 27 (envelope
containing Doc. 25, the first of two notices of the hearing on plaintiff’s Motion for Default
Judgment). This was curious. The returned notice was directed to Mr. Jenkins at the same
address where plaintiff had served Mr. Jenkins and where he professes in his motion to reside
currently. Compare Doc. 10 with Docs. 27, 44. But the second hearing notice dispatched to Mr.
Jenkins—Doc. 29—was not returned. This creates a presumption that Mr. Jenkins received
notice of the hearing on plaintiff’s Motion for Default Judgment and the amount it placed in
issue. See Kan. Stat. Ann. 60-205(a)–(b) (noting that papers, including “written notice,
appearance, demand, offer of judgment or any similar paper,” may be served on a party by
“mailing it to the person’s last known address, in which event service is complete upon
mailing”); Hagner v. United States, 285 U.S. 427, 430 (1932) (“The rule is well settled that proof
that a letter properly directed was placed in a post office creates a presumption that it reached its
destination in usual time and was actually received by the person to whom it was addressed.”).
This series of events, all of which the official record in the case corroborates, persuades
the court to find that Mr. Jenkins knew about the case against him, his obligation to respond to
the Complaint, and the hearing where plaintiff’s Motion for Default Judgment and her request to
award damages would be determined. And yet, Mr. Jenkins did nothing to engage in the case.
Instead, he waited until June 19, 2018, and then claimed he had learned about “the judgment
from a news cast.” Doc. 42 at 1 (emphasis added). That assertion, even if technically true, fails
to establish that Mr. Jenkins did not know about the claims against him, or that he failed to

7

apprehend his duty to respond to these claims. In sum, Mr. Jenkins has failed to convince the
court that he did not know about the Complaint or his duty to respond to the claims it asserted.
No good reason excuses, or even explains, Mr. Jenkins’s failure to respond to the Complaint
timely.
Despite this record, Mr. Jenkins insists that he is entitled to relief under the Federal Rules
of Civil Procedure. Specifically, he cites Rules 60(b)(2) & (3). Subsection (2) allows relief for a
moving party who presents “newly discovered evidence that, with reasonable diligence, could
not have been discovered in time to move for a new trial under 59(b).” Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b)(2).
And subsection (3) permits relief when the moving party demonstrates “fraud . . . ,
misrepresentation, or misconduct by an opposing party.” Id. at 60(b)(3). Although Mr. Jenkins
cites these two subsections, he presents no facts or other circumstances warranting relief under
either subsection of Rule 60.
To demonstrate that evidence is “newly discovered” under Rule 60(b)(2), Mr. Jenkins
must show:
(1) the evidence was newly discovered since the trial; (2) [Mr. Jenkins] was
diligent in discovering the new evidence; (3) the newly discovered evidence could
not be merely cumulative or impeaching; (4) the newly discovered evidence [is]
material; and (5) that a new trial[ ] with the newly discovered evidence would
probably produce a different result.
Zurich N. Am. v. Matrix Serv., Inc., 426 F.3d 1281, 1290 (10th Cir. 2005) (quoting Graham ex
rel. Graham v. Wyeth Labs., Div. of Am. Home Prods. Corp., 906 F.2d 1399, 1416 (10th Cir.
1990)). Although Mr. Jenkins includes several affidavits with his motion, he has not connected
the affidavits and the requisite Rule 60(b)(2) elements. Specifically, Mr. Jenkins never explains
how this evidence is “newly discovered.” Mr. Jenkins may not properly invoke this aspect of
Rule 60.

8

Under Rule 60(b)(3), Mr. Jenkins must establish by clear and convincing evidence that
plaintiff committed fraud, misrepresentation, or some other misconduct. Welch v. Centex Home
Equity Co., L.L.C., 224 F.R.D. 490, 494 (D. Kan. 2004). He also must demonstrate that plaintiff
acted with an intent to defraud or deceive the court. See Loum v. Houston’s Rest., Inc., 177
F.R.D. 670, 672 (D. Kan. 1998). Lastly, the movant must show that “the challenged behavior”
substantially has “interfered with the aggrieved party’s ability fully and fairly to prepare for and
proceed at trial.” Zurich N. Am., 426 F.3d at 1290 (citations omitted). “Generally speaking, only
the most egregious conduct, such as bribery of a judge or members of a jury, or the fabrication of
evidence by a party in which an attorney is implicated, will constitute a fraud on the court.”
Welch, 224 F.R.D. at 494 (citation omitted). Once again, Mr. Jenkins has provided no
information capable of satisfying any of these alternatives. The court thus concludes that Rule
60(b)(3) does not provide Mr. Jenkins a basis for relief.
Finally, the court construes Mr. Jenkins’s Motion to invoke the “catch-all provision”
found in subsection (6) of Rule 60(b). See Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b)(6) (providing relief for “any
other reason that justifies relief.”). The Tenth Circuit has described this subsection as a “grand
reservoir of equitable power to do justice in a particular case.” Van Skiver v. United States, 952
F.2d 1241, 1244 (10th Cir. 1991) (quoting Pierce v. Cook & Co., 518 F.2d 720, 722 (10th Cir.
1975) (en banc)) (internal quotation marks omitted). Our court has concluded:
Circumstances typically warranting relief under Rule 60(b)(6) include . . . [when]
the judgment was obtained by the improper conduct of the party in whose favor it
was rendered or the judgment resulted from the excusable default of the party
against whom it was directed under circumstances going beyond the earlier clauses
of the rule.
Varner v. Unified Sch. Dist. No. 259, No. 88-1126-SAC, 1993 WL 104915, at *2 (D. Kan. Mar.
5, 1993) (internal quotation marks and citation omitted). Mr. Jenkins never asserts that plaintiff

9

engaged in any improper conduct or provides any excuse for his own default. The court declines
to grant any relief under Rule 60(b)(6).
C.

Rule 8

Mr. Jenkins also purports to invoke a general denial under Rule 8(b)(3). Indeed, Rule 8
requires a party to “admit or deny the allegations asserted against it by an opposing party.” Fed.
R. Civ. P. 8(b)(1)(B). And “[a] party that intends in good faith to deny all the allegations of a
pleading—including the jurisdictional grounds—may do so by a general denial.” Id. at 8(b)(3).
But Mr. Jenkins is way too late to make a general denial. He had 21 days to respond to
plaintiff’s Complaint after he was served with the Summons and Complaint. Id. at
12(a)(1)(A)(ii). Plaintiff served Mr. Jenkins no later than September 25, 2017, so Mr. Jenkins’s
Answer, at latest, was due by October 16, 2017. See Doc. 10. While Mr. Jenkins filed a
“Motion for Writ of Certiorari” on October 11, 2017, Magistrate Judge James concluded that this
filing did not qualify as an Answer or other response. Doc. 19 at 2. And Mr. Jenkins filed
nothing else with the court until he filed the current Motion. In short, Mr. Jenkins’s attempt to
deny the allegations against him arrives far too late.
D.

Rule 12

Finally, Mr. Jenkins challenges the process and service of process under Rules 12(b)(4)
and (5). But Mr. Jenkins has waived any objections under Rules 12(b)(4) and (5). See Fed. R.
Civ. P. 12(h)(1) (“A party waives any defense listed in Rule 12(b)(2)–(5) by: (A) omitting it
from a motion in the circumstances described in Rule 12(g)(2); or (B) failing either to: (i) make
it by motion under this rule; or (ii) include it in a responsive pleading or in an amendment
allowed by Rule 15(a)(1) as a matter of course.”). Even if Mr. Jenkins hadn’t waived his right to

10

object to the process and service, his Motion provides no reason to grant him relief under Rules
12(b)(4) and (5).
A defendant can object to “the contents of the summons” under Rule 12(b)(4) and
challenge “the mode or lack of delivery of a summons and complaint” under Rule 12(b)(5).
Oltremari by McDaniel v. Kan. Soc. & Rehab. Serv., 871 F. Supp. 1331, 1349 (D. Kan. 1994)
(quoting Blue Ocean Lines v. Universal Process Equip., Inc., No. 93 Civ. 1722 (SS), 1993 WL
403961, at *4 (S.D.N.Y. Oct. 7, 1993) (internal quotation marks omitted)). But Mr. Jenkins’s
motion makes no reference to any of Rule 4(a)’s requirements for the content of the summons.
Even if he had objected to one of the seven requirements for a summons, Mr. Jenkins has not
explained how that hypothetical defect prejudiced him. See id. (“A Rule 12(b)(4) motion should
be granted only when the defect is prejudicial to defendant.” (internal quotation marks and
citation omitted)). Rule 12(b)(4) provides Mr. Jenkins no basis for relief.
Also, Mr. Jenkins does not “point out in what manner the plaintiff has failed to satisfy the
service provision [that was] utilized.” See id. (internal quotation marks and citation omitted).
Importantly, the docket reflects that Mr. Jenkins was served by leaving a copy of the Summons
and Complaint at Mr. Jenkins’s dwelling with someone of suitable age. See Fed. R. Civ. P.
4(e)(2)(B); Doc. 10. Mr. Jenkins has failed to establish any shortcoming of the service provision
that plaintiff utilized, so Rule 12(b)(5) provides him no basis for relief from the default
judgment.
In sum, Mr. Jenkins is not entitled to relief from the court’s default judgment under Rule
59(a) or (e), Rule 60(b), Rule 8(b)(3), or Rule 12(b)(4) or (5). The court thus denies Mr.
Jenkins’s Motion for a New Trial (Doc. 42).

11

II.

Plaintiff’s Motion for Writ of Execution
On June 25, 2018, plaintiff Kendra Ross filed a Motion for Writ of Execution (Doc. 45).

The court construes this Motion as one invoking Fed. R. Civ. P. 69(a)(1) and 70(d). Rule
69(a)(1) provides: “A money judgment is enforced by a writ of execution, unless the court
directs otherwise. The procedure on execution . . . must accord with the procedure of the state
where the court is located, but a federal statute governs to the extent it applies.” Rule 70(d)
provides: “On application by a party who obtains a judgment or order for possession, the clerk
must issue a writ of execution or assistance.”
Here, plaintiff has secured a default judgment against defendants, and now, she asks for a
writ of execution to enforce her judgment. Because no federal statute governs, Rule 69(a)(1)
directs that the execution must comply with the procedure of the state where our court sits—
Kansas. Kan. Stat. Ann § 60-2401 provides the Kansas procedure for execution: “At the request
of any interested person, executions . . . shall be issued by the clerk and signed by the judge.”
The court finds that plaintiff Kendra Ross, an interested person, is a judgment creditor
and defendants Royall Jenkins, The Value Creators, Inc. f/k/a The United Nation of Islam, Inc.,
The Value Creators LLC, and The Value Creators, Inc., are judgment debtors. On May 23,
2018, the court entered default judgment in plaintiff’s favor. See Doc. 41. The judgment
balance due by defendants is $7,938,546.30, interest in the amount of $15,137.61, attorneys’ fees
and costs in the amount of $117,184.34, and a post-judgment interest rate at 2.32% per annum.
See id. Because the court has determined that Mr. Jenkins is not entitled to relief from the
default judgment, and the other defendants have not properly asked to set aside the judgment or
filed a notice of appeal, execution of the default judgment is appropriate.

12

The court thus directs the United States Marshal or other process server to: (a) seize any
non-exempt personal property belonging to the judgment debtors; and (b) sell this property to
satisfy the judgment, together with interest and costs, including the costs and expense for
executing this Writ. These procedures must comply with Article 24 of Chapter 60 of the Kansas
Statutes Annotated. The court also directs the United States Marshal or other process server to
return this Writ together with a report of the proceedings within 60 days of the date of this Writ.
Finally, the court directs the United States Marshal or other process server to serve a copy
of this Writ on defendants as required by Kan. Stat. Ann. § 60-2401.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED THAT defendant Royall Jenkins’s Motion for New
Trial (Doc. 42) is denied.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED THAT plaintiff Kendra Ross’s Motion for Writ of
Execution (Doc. 45) is granted.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED THAT the United States Marshal must execute the
default judgment in the fashion directed by this Order.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated this 2nd day of October, 2018, at Kansas City, Kansas.
