SEAN MICHAEL RYAN, #787263 Plaintiff, v. MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, Defendant.
ORDER DENYING NOTICE OF OBJECTION/MOTION AND ADDRESSING REQUEST TO EXPEDITE PROCEEDINGS
Victoria A. Roberts, United States District Judge
On June 22, 2022, Plaintiff (“Ryan”) filed a “Notice of Objection and Intent to Appeal the Order Issued.” [ECF No. 48]
Ryan says he “does not feel that a motion for reconsideration would do anything but waste the parties (sic) and Court valuable time.” He makes no substantive arguments except to say the Court abused its discretion in granting Defendants' Motion for Summary Judgment. [ECF 44].
The Court notes Ryan's objection, construes this as a Motion for Reconsideration nonetheless, and finds that Ryan fails to demonstrate the Court made a mistake in its Order.[ECF No 44], see E.D. Mich. LR 7.1(h)(1).
For these reasons, the notice/motion is DENIED.
On August 19, 2022, Ryan also filed a “Request for the Court to Expedite Proceedings.” [ECF No. 50]
Ryan asks the Court to (1) file the necessary papers to notify the Court of Appeals of his intent to appeal this Court's Order issued May 24, 2022; (2) allow him the ability to proceed In Forma Pauperis; and (3) take any other action necessary to expedite the appellate process.
This Court does not notify the Court of Appeals of a party's intent to file an appeal. It is Ryan's responsibility to file a notice of appeal with the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals.
The Court GRANTS Ryan's request to proceed on appeal In Forma Pauperis.
Ryan's request that the Court expedite the appellate process is DENIED. This Court does not have jurisdiction over the appellate process.
ORDERED.
