Opinion

CIVIL ACTION NO. 06-1292.

January 24, 2008


MEMORANDUM ORDER


Before the court is a motion filed by pro se plaintiff, Yvonne Dockery ("Dockery"), entitled "Motin (sic) To Set Aside Respondent/Defendants (sic) Motion For Summary Judgment And Court Order For Summary Judgment Pursuant To Rule 60(b) Of The Rule (sic) Of Civil Procedure With Brief Incorporated." Record Document 47. Dockery seeks to have the court set aside its summary judgment ruling, wherein the court dismissed all of her claims against the defendants with prejudice.

Dockery's motion currently before the court appears to be an attempt to reopen her case under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b). That rule provides relief from a judgment due to mistake, inadvertence, excusable neglect, newly discovered evidence, fraud, or various other inapplicable reasons. Dockery's only arguments in her motion focus on her claims that she was falsely arrested and imprisoned and denied equal protection of the laws. She does not, however, invoke any of the enumerated bases for relief provided in Rule 60(b). The rule upon which she relies simply does not provide for any of the relief that Dockery is seeking in her motion, nor does any other rule of which the court is aware. Accordingly;

IT IS ORDERED that motion to set aside (Record Document 47) be and is hereby DENIED.
