No. CV-08-1010-PHX-FJM

ORDER

We previously dismissed this case for lack of subject matter jurisdiction (doc. 22).

We also denied plaintiff’s motion to amend the complaint, concluding that the proposed

amendments did not cure the jurisdictional defects and therefore the amendment would be

futile. Plaintiff has now filed another proposed amended complaint (doc. 24), essentially

repeating the arguments contained in his prior two complaints, and asking us to amend our

order to permit the filing of the new complaint. We consider this a motion for

reconsideration under LRCiv 7.2(g). 

Plaintiff’s new proposed amended complaint does not cure the jurisdictional

defects—the claims remain a de facto appeal of a state court judgment. Therefore, once

again the amendment would be futile and the motion for reconsideration is denied (doc. 24).
