Motions for reconsideration are disfavored. Local Rules W.D. Wash. CR 7(h)(1).

2 The court will ordinarily deny these motions in the absence of a showing of "manifest 3 error" in the prior ruling or a showing of "new facts or legal authority which could not 4 have been brought to its attention earlier with reasonable diligence." Id. Ms. Walia fails 5 to meet either criterion for granting a motion for reconsideration. Accordingly, the court 6 DENIES the motions.
