Filing 194 ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF GARCIA'S MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION, ECF 192 - Signed by JUDGE ALAN C. KAY on 10/30/2020.Simply put, Plaintiff Garcia's Motion fails to "set forth facts or law of a 'strongly convincing' nature to induce the court to reverse its prior decision." Winterbottom, 2019 WL 7116352, at *1. Because Plaintiff Garcia repeats arguments already analyzed by the Court and because the Court finds no error of law or fact on the merits, Plaintif f Garcia's Motion for Reconsideration, ECF No. 192, is DENIED.

Filing 191 ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANTS' MOTIONS FOR JUDGMENT ON THE PLEADINGS AND SUMMARY JUDGMENT - Signed by JUDGE ALAN C. KAY on 9/18/2020.For the foregoing reasons, the Court: GRANTS the Motion for Summary Judgment filed by Defendant Paul Lee, ECF No. 131; GRANTS the Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings filed by Defendants Lanell Arakawa and Nathan Hee, ECF No. 130; and GRANTS the Motion for Summary Judgment filed by the City and County of Honolulu, ECF No. 134. The Court finds that dismissal with prejudice is warranted as to the claims against Defendants Arakawa and Hee. Litigation in this case has been ongoing for well over two years. Plaintiff Garcia has already filed a first amended complaint, a nd Plaintiff Garcia was further permitted an opportunity to file a second amended complaint following the 05/03/2019 Order ruling on the prior motions to dismiss but opted not to do so. See 05/03/2019 Order at 57. During the more than two years of li tigation, the parties have argued three sets of dispositive motions, conducted discovery, and postponed trial multiple times. Given the procedural history and the advanced stage of litigation in this case, the Court finds dismissal with prejudice is now appropriate. COURT'S CERTIFICATE of Service - Non-Registered CM/ECF Participants will be served by First Class Mail on 9/21/2020 to the addresses of record listed on the Notice of Electronic Filing (NEF)(jni) |
