ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR CLARIFICATION
On February 18, 2014, the Court issued an order denying David J. Widi, Jr.’s
motion for reconsideration of an earlier order. Order Denying Pl.’s Mots. for Recons.
of Orders Granting Mot. to Dismiss to Paul McNeil and Mot. for Summ. J. to TD
Bank (ECF No. 213); see also Order Denying Pl.’s Mot. to Stay; Denying Pl.’s Mot. to
Strike; and Granting Def. McNeil’s Mot. to Dismiss (ECF No. 170) (granting Special
Agent Paul McNeil’s Motion to Dismiss); Order Granting Mot. for Summ. J. by Def. TD
Bank; Denying Mot. to Strike; Denying Disc.; and Dismissing Without Prejudice Mot. for
Service of Process (ECF No. 171) (granting TD Bank’s Motion for Summary Judgment).
On March 14, 2014, Mr. Widi moved for clarification of the Order on his motion for
reconsideration. Mot. for Clarification (ECF No. 223). Mr. Widi requests the Court to
clarify whether he “is free to appeal the Court’s decisions to grant S/A Paul McNeil’s
motion to dismiss and TD Bank’s motion for summary judgment to the First Circuit
Court of Appeals.” Id. at 1. Although framed as a motion for clarification, Mr. Widi’s
motion is in substance a request for legal advice. The Court declines Mr. Widi’s request

1

for advice as to his rights of appeal; this is something Mr. Widi, who is representing
himself, must determine for himself.
The Court DENIES David J. Widi, Jr.’s Motion for Clarification (ECF No. 223).
SO ORDERED.
