grounds, and it appearing that the defendants fail to establish one of three major
grounds needed for a proper motion for reconsideration, see Max’s Seafood
Cafe, by Lou-Ann, Inc., v. Quinteros, 176 F.3d 669, 677 (3d Cir. 1999) (stating
that the three major grounds include “(1) an intervening change in controlling law;
(2) the availability of new evidence that was not available when the court granted
the motion for summary judgment; or (3) the need to correct a clear error of law
or fact or to prevent manifest injustice”), it is hereby ORDERED that:
(1) the defendants’ motion for reconsideration (Doc. 67) is DENIED;
and
(2) the defendants’ motion to stay pending the court’s resolution of
the qualified immunity issue (Doc. 69) is DENIED as MOOT.
