August 26, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 31 ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION OF DISMISSAL by Judge James V. Selna: denying #30 MOTION for Reconsideration. On August 17, 2016, Plaintiff filed "Plaintiff's Objection to Order of Dismissal Dated July 7, 2016." Plaintiff contends that this Court did not have jurisdiction to enter the dismissal after he filed a Notice of Appeal. The Court construes Plaintiff's objection as a motion for reconsideration. So construed, Plaintiff's motion is without merit. A Notice of Appeal from a nonappealable order does not divest a district court of jurisdiction. For the foregoing reasons, the Court DENIES Plaintiff's motion for reconsideration. (See Order for details.) (mp)

February 9, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 8 ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE by Magistrate Judge Alicia G. Rosenberg. On January 26, 2016, Plaintiff filed a civil rights complaint. For the reasons discussed below, it appears that the court lacks jurisdiction over Plaintiff's claims under the Rooker-Feldman doctrine and the Anti-Injunction Act. Alternatively, judicial immunity appears to shield the judges from Plaintiff's claims against them. The court therefore orders Plaintiff to show cause on or before March 9, 2016, (a) why this court has jurisdiction over Plaintiff's claims; and (b) why the judicial defendants, namely Reva G. Goetz, Estate of H. Walter Croskey, Patti S. Kitching, and Richard D. Aldrich, should not be dismissed from the action. (See Order for details.) (mp)
