IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT .

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF NORTH CAROLINA

WESTERN DIVISION

No. 5:20-CV-585-D

OSVALDO FIGUEROA, )

Plaintiff,

v. ORDER :

BUTTERBALL, LLC, ,

Defendant.

On July 27, 2022, the court granted in part and denied in part Butterball, LLC’s (“Butterball”

or “defendant”) motion to dismiss Osvaldo Figueroa’s (“Figueroa” or “plaintiff’) second amended

complaint [D.E. 32]. On August 10, 2022, Figueroa moved for reconsideration [D.E. 35] and filed

amemorandum in support [D.E. 36]. On August 31, 2022, Butterball responded in opposition [D.E.

39]. On September 14, 2022, Figueroa replied [D.E. 40].

The court has considered Figueroa’s motion for reconsideration under the governing

standard. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e); TFWS, Inc. v. Franchot, 572 F.3d 186, 194 (4th Cir. 2009);

Zinkand v. Brown, 478 F.3d 634, 637 (4th Cir. 2007); Bogart v. Chapell, 396 F.3d 548, 555 (4th Cir.

2005); Pac. Ins. Co. v. Am. Nat’! Fire Ins. Co., 148 F.3d 396, 403 (4th Cir. 1998); Hughes v.

Bedsole, 48 F.3d 1376, 1382 (4th Cir. 1995). There was no change in law or new evidence, and

Figueroa has not presented any arguments warranting reconsideration.

Figueroa’s motion also fails to meet Rule 60(b)’s threshold requirements and is denied as

baseless. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b); Aikens v. Ingram, 652 F.3d 496, 500-01 & n.3 (4th Cir. 2011)

(en banc); Robinson vy. Wix Filtration Corp. LLC, 599 F.3d 403, 412 n.12 (4th Cir. 2010); Nat'l

Credit Union Admin. Bd. v. Gray, 1 F.3d 262, 264 (4th Cir. 1993).

The motion for reconsideration [D.E. 35] lacks merit and is DENIED.

SO ORDERED. This 24 day of September, 2022.
