Case Number 10-14696

ANNE E. TANN, Plaintiff, v. CHASE HOME FINANCE, L.L.C. and IBM LENDER BUSINESS PROCESS SERVICES, INC., Defendants.
Honorable David M. Lawson
ORDER DENYING MOTIONS FOR RECONSIDERATION
The matter is before the Court on the defendants' motions for reconsideration. A motion for reconsideration may be granted pursuant to E.D. Mich. LR 7.1(h)(1) when the moving party shows (1) a "palpable defect," (2) that misled the court and the parties, and (3) that correcting the defect will result in a different disposition of the case. E.D. Mich. LR 7.1(h)(3). "Generally, . . . the court will not grant motions for . . . reconsideration that merely present the same issues ruled upon by the court, either expressly or by reasonable implication." Id. A "palpable defect" is a defect which is obvious, clear, unmistakable, manifest, or plain. Mich. Dep't of Treasury v. Michalec, 181 F. Supp. 2d 731, 734 (E.D. Mich. 2002) (citations omitted). The defendants have not presented evidence of a palpable defect that misled the Court. Instead, the defendants' motions merely revisit issues already decided by the Court. Therefore, the Court will deny the defendants' motions for reconsideration.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the defendants' motions for reconsideration [dkts. #81, 82] are DENIED.
