UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MICHAEL WITKIN,

Plaintiff,

v.

M. LOTERSZTAIN, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:19-cv-00406-TLN-KJN

ORDER

Plaintiff is a former state prisoner. On July 11, 2022, plaintiff filed a motion for 

reconsideration (ECF No. 75) of the magistrate judge’s order filed June 23, 2022 (ECF No. 72), 

denying plaintiff’s motion to exclude the opinion testimony of Dr. Burgar. Pursuant to Local 

Rule 303(f), a magistrate judge’s orders shall be upheld unless “clearly erroneous or contrary to 

law.” Upon review of the entire file, the Court finds that it does not appear that the magistrate 

judge’s ruling was clearly erroneous or contrary to law.

Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, upon reconsideration (ECF No. 75), the order 

of the magistrate judge filed June 23, 2022 (ECF No. 72) is affirmed. 

DATED: July 22, 2022
