Nancy L. Knight v. County of Mohave, et al.

Summary

The United States District Court for the District of Arizona denied Nancy L. Knight’s motion for reconsideration of the dismissal of her complaint with prejudice. The court held that the motion failed to comply with Local Rule 7.2(g), presented no new facts or manifest error, and did not alter the prior dismissal; the matter therefore remained closed.

Holdings

1. Plaintiff's motion for reconsideration failed to comply with Local Rule of Civil Procedure 7.2(g) because it did not identify qualifying overlooked or misapprehended matters, new facts or law unavailable earlier, or a proper basis for modifying the prior order, and it repeated or recast arguments related to the prior dismissal.
2. Plaintiff did not establish manifest error, new facts, or new legal authority, so reconsideration of the dismissal order was unwarranted.

Questions Presented

1. Whether Plaintiff satisfied the requirements for reconsideration under Local Rule of Civil Procedure 7.2(g).
2. Whether Plaintiff demonstrated manifest error, newly discovered facts, or new legal authority warranting reconsideration of the dismissal order.
