Cedrick Frazier and Tamara Frazier v. Southeast Georgia Health System, Inc.; Sherman A. Stevenson, M.D.; and Cooperative Healthcare Services, Inc. d/b/a Southeast Georgia Physician Associates—Ear, Nose, & Throat

Summary

The United States District Court for the Southern District of Georgia denies the plaintiffs’ renewed motion to disqualify the judge and, to the extent applicable, their request for reconsideration. The court relies on its prior orders and explains the standards governing reconsideration of an order.

Holdings

1. Plaintiffs' attempt to re-raise the disqualification issue was denied for the reasons stated in the court's prior orders.
2. Reconsideration was denied because plaintiffs did not establish an intervening change in controlling law, newly available evidence, clear error, or manifest injustice, and reconsideration cannot be used to relitigate old matters or present arguments or evidence that could have been raised earlier.

Questions Presented

1. Whether plaintiffs could re-raise the previously denied motion to disqualify the undersigned judge.
2. Whether plaintiffs were entitled to reconsideration of the prior orders.
