MEMORANDUM **
Nevada prisoner Kane Patterson appeals pro se from the district court’s order denying his motion to reconsider following the judgment dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action for failure to comply with a court order to pay an initial partial filing fee. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review for an abuse of discretion, Sch. Dist. No. 1J, Multnomah County, Or. v. ACandS, Inc., 5 F.3d 1255, 1262 (9th Cir.1993), and we vacate and remand.
Patterson moved for reconsideration and submitted proof to explain his apparent failure to comply with the district court’s prior order. Because the district court summarily denied the motion, and relief appears to be warranted under either Rule 59(e) or 60(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, we vacate the order denying the motion to reconsider and remand for further proceedings. See Sch. Dist. No. 1J, 5 F.3d at 1263 (explaining requirements for Rules 59(e) and 60(b)); see also Bateman v. U.S. Postal Serv., 231 F.3d 1220, 1224 (9th Cir.2000) (holding that district court abused its discretion in denying Rule 60(b)(1) motion without conducting equitable analysis).
VACATED and REMANDED.
