UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

EDWARD JAMES SERVIN, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF 

CORRECTIONS, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:14-cv-2999 JAM AC P 

ORDER 

 On June 18, 2015, the Magistrate Judge issued an order for plaintiff to pay the required 

fees for a civil rights action, in the amount of $400.00, or an application to proceed in forma 

pauperis. ECF No. 8. On July 14, 2015,1 plaintiff filed a request for reconsideration of that 

order. Local Rule 303(b), states “rulings by Magistrate Judges . . . shall be final if no 

reconsideration thereof is sought from the Court within fourteen days . . . from the date of service 

of the ruling on the parties.” Id. Plaintiff’s request for reconsideration of the magistrate judge’s 

order of June 18, 2015, is therefore untimely. 

 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff’s July 14, 2015 request for 

reconsideration (ECF No. 9) is denied. 

DATED: August 19, 2015

 The prison mailbox rule was used in determining the filing date. See Houston v. Lack, 487 U.S.
