IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
No. C 07-3045 WHA (PR) ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR PERMISSION TO FILE A MOTION TO RECONSIDER
United States District Court
11
For the Northern District of California
12 13 14
This prisoner complaint was dismissed for failure to state a claim and judgment was entered. Plaintiff's subsequent motion to reconsider was denied. Plaintiff has now filed a "Motion for Permission to File a Motion for Reconsideration." Although it is true that in this district a litigant needs permission to file a motion to reconsider if a judgment has not yet been entered, the rule does not apply to motions filed after judgment. See Local Rule CIV 44. Plaintiff's motion (document number 12 on the docket) is DENIED as unnecessary. IT IS SO ORDERED. Dated: January 28 , 2008.
