RANDY L. THOMAS, Plaintiff, v. AIDA CORREA, Defendant. RANDY L. THOMAS, Plaintiff, v. NORTH CAROLINA DEPT. OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, Defendant.
ORDER
This matter is before the court on plaintiff's 4 April 2013 motions, which the court construes as motions to alter or amend, and/or for relief from, the court's 18 March 2013 judgment pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 59(e) and 60(b). Having considered the standards for granting such motions, see Aikens v. Ingram, 652 F.3d 496, 500-01 (4th Cir. 2011) (specifying that a district court may only grant relief from judgment for the reasons listed in Rule 60(b)); Bogart v. Chapell, 396 F.3d 548, 555 (4th Cir. 2005) (enumerating circumstances under which court may grant a Rule 59(e) motion), the court finds that plaintiff is not entitled to relief from the judgment, and the motions are DENIED. The Clerk is DIRECTED to notify the appellate court of this order.
