or excusable neglect; (2) newly discovered evidence

which by due diligence could not have been discovered

fraud (whether heretofore denominated intrinsic or

extrinsic), misrepresentation, or other misconduct of

an adverse party; (4) the judgment is void; (5) the

judgment has been satisfied, released or discharged, or

a prior judgment upon which it is based has been

reversed or otherwise vacated, or it is no longer

equitable that the judgment should have prospective

application; or (6) any other reason justifying relief

from the operation of the judgment.

Petitioner does not demonstrate he is entitled to relief

from judgment.

Accordingly, petitioner’s August 22, 2005, request is

denied.

So ordered.
