ORDER denying 20 Motion for Reconsideration. Signed by District Judge John Corbett O'Meara. (WBar)
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION
JAMES DENT, #214488,
Petitioner,
CASE NO. 14-CV-13272
HON. JOHN CORBETT O’MEARA
v.
DAVID BERGH,
Respondent.
__________________________________/
ORDER DENYING PETITIONER’S MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION
This matter is before the Court on Petitioner’s motion for reconsideration concerning the
Court’s September 13, 2017 opinion and order denying his habeas petition on the merits. The Court
also denied a certificate of appealability and denied leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal.
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. See 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 has 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). Accordingly, the Court DENIES Petitioner’s motion for
reconsideration. This case remains closed.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
