ORDER

THIS MATTER is before the Court on Plaintiff’s motion for reconsideration of the
Order of dismissal which was filed on May 17, 2013. (Doc. No. 7). In the Order of dismissal, the
Court found that Plaintiff’s claims for relief were barred by Heck v. Humphrey, 512 U.S. 477
(1994), and Preiser v. Rodriguez, 411 U.S. 475 (1973). Plaintiff did not appeal from this Order.
Instead, he waited nearly a year to file the present motion for reconsideration. The Court finds
that Plaintiff has failed to establish any claim that this Court’s Order should be set aside or
amended. Accordingly, the Court will deny Plaintiff’s motion to amend for the reasons stated in
the Court’s Order of dismissal.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that Plaintiff’s motion for reconsideration is
DENIED. (Doc. No. 9).
