Gregory Goods v. David Baughman, et al.

Summary

The United States District Court for the Eastern District of California denies Gregory Goods's motion to alter or amend judgment under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 59(e). The court concludes that the motion does not identify a manifest error, newly discovered evidence, manifest injustice, or intervening change in controlling law, and does not address the underlying dismissal for failure to state a plausible claim under 42 U.S.C. § 1983.

Holdings

1. Plaintiff did not identify manifest error, newly discovered or previously unavailable evidence, manifest injustice, or an intervening change in controlling law; therefore, his Rule 59(e) motion was denied.

Questions Presented

1. Whether Plaintiff established a basis under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 59(e) to alter or amend the judgment dismissing his section 1983 action.
