UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION
SEAN MICHAEL RYAN, #787263,
Plaintiff,
CASE NO. 2:20-CV-12502
HONORABLE SEAN F. COX

v.
MICHIGAN, et al.,
Defendants.
_________________________________/

ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION AND TO REOPEN
This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff’s motion for reconsideration concerning the
Court’s dismissal of his amended pro se civil rights complaint for failure to comply with Rule 8 of
the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and for failure to allege sufficient facts to state a conspiracy
claim against each of the 429 named defendants. Plaintiff seeks to reopen this case and to be
provided resources and time to file yet another amended complaint.
Having reviewed the matter, the Court finds no reason to reconsider its decision. 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). Such is the
case here. Plaintiff fails to meet 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 amended complaint,
which violated Rule 8 and simultaneously failed to allege sufficient facts to state a claim against the
defendants, for the reasons stated in its dismissal decision. Accordingly, the Court denies Plaintiff’s
motion for reconsideration and to reopen this case. This case remains closed. No further pleadings

Case 2:20-cv-12502-SFC-EAS ECF No. 26, PageID.1294 Filed 12/29/21 Page 2 of 2

should be filed in this matter.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
