GERALD ASH,
Plaintiff,

Case No. 12-15201
HON. GEORGE CARAM STEEH

vs.
WALGREENS SPECIALTY
PHARMACY, LLC, and
WALGREENS CO.,
Defendants.
_______________________________/
ORDER DENYING DEFENDANTS’ MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION
On January 22, 2014, this court granted in part, and denied in part, defendants’
motion for summary judgment. Defendants have filed a motion for reconsideration. Local
Rule 7.1(h)(3) of the Local Rules of the United States District Court for the Eastern District
of Michigan provides:
Generally, and without restricting the court's discretion, the court will not grant
motions for rehearing or reconsideration that merely present the same issues
ruled upon by the court, either expressly or by reasonable implication. The
movant must not only demonstrate a palpable defect by which the court and the
parties and other persons entitled to be heard on the motion have been misled
but also show that correcting the defect will result in a different disposition of the
case.
E.D. Mich. L.R. 7.1(h)(3). Defendants have failed to demonstrate a palpable defect by
which this court has been misled, the correction of which will result in a different
disposition of this case. While the fact finder may conclude that defendants’ view of the
weight and meaning of the evidence is accurate, this court is constrained to view the
evidence in the light most favorable to the non-movant.
