Date Filed Document Text
September 23, 2019 Filing 11 Letter from Plaintiff regarding his Motions to Reconsider. (DS, ilcd)
September 19, 2019 Opinion or Order TEXT ORDER entered by Judge Harold A. Baker on 9/19/2019. Plaintiff's motions for reconsideration #8 and #9 are DENIED. To the extent that Plaintiff is asking the Court to conduct a second merit review hearing, that request is denied. Merit review hearings are not a right and are not required in order for the Court to conduct a merit review of a prisoner's complaint under 28 USC 1915A. The Court occasionally conducts a hearing in order to assist with the review, but a hearing is not a right and is not required. To the extent that Plaintiff is asking the Court to reconsider its Merit Review Order, Plaintiff's motions are premature, in that, he filed his motions before the Court issued its Merit Review Order. Plaintiff should consider the Court's Merit Review Order now that it has been issued and should use the forms provided by the Court in order to try and allege a timely claim upon which relief can be granted, if possible. (KE, ilcd)
