UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION
ALLEN DEAN ARMSTRONG, #222965,
Petitioner,
CASE NO. 2:16-CV-13449
HONORABLE NANCY G. EDMUNDS
v.
SHERMAN CAMPBELL,
Respondent.
/
ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR FEDERAL HABEAS CORPUS [Dkt. #20]
This matter is before the Court on habeas petitioner Allen Dean Armstrong’s second
post-judgment motion concerning the Court's dismissal of his habeas petition for failure to
comply with the one-year statute of limitations application to federal habeas actions. The
Court also denied a certificate of appealability and denied leave to proceed in forma
pauperis on appeal. The Court has previously denied his motion for reconsideration and
objections. While the instant pleading is somewhat difficult to follow, it appears that
Petitioner is again seeking reconsideration of the Court’s dismissal of his petition.
A motion for reconsideration which presents issues already ruled upon by the Court,
either expressly or by reasonable implication, will not be granted. Hence v. Smith, 49 F.
Supp. 2d 547, 550 (E.D. Mich. 1999); Czajkowski v. Tindall & Assoc., P.C., 967 F. Supp.
951, 952 (E.D. Mich. 1997). Petitioner raises such issues in his motion. Petitioner has also
not met his burden of showing a palpable defect by which the Court has been misled or his
burden of showing that a different disposition must result from a correction thereof, as
required by Local Rule 7.1(h)(3). The Court properly dismissed the habeas petition as
untimely and properly denied a certificate of appealability and leave to proceed in forma
pauperis on appeal. Accordingly, the Court DENIES Petitioner’s motion. No further
pleadings should be filed in this matter. This case is closed.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
