UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

TIMOTHY WAYNE PAIGE, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

ROBERT WOODS HOSPITAL, 

Defendant. 

No. 2:15-cv-1453 JAM CKD P 

ORDER 

 Plaintiff, a California prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed a motion asking that the court 

reconsider its November 4, 2015 order dismissing this case. A district court may reconsider a 

ruling under either Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 59(e) or 60(b). See Sch. Dist. Number. 1J, 

Multnomah County v. ACandS, Inc., 5 F.3d 1255, 1262 (9th Cir. 1993). “Reconsideration is 

appropriate if the district court (1) is presented with newly discovered evidence, (2) committed 

clear error or the initial decision was manifestly unjust, or (3) if there is an intervening change in 

controlling law.” Id. at 1263. 

 This action was dismissed because plaintiff failed to file an application to proceed in 

forma pauperis or pay the filing fee. Plaintiff fails to point to anything excusing his failure.
