MDGa – Motion treated as Rule 59(e) Motion to Alter or Amend Judgment, and Denied

By Sunghee Sohn on April 20, 2006

Fed.R.Fed.P. 59(e); Motion to Alter or Amend Judgment
Waller v. Frost, 2006 U.S.Dist LEXIS 19925 (M.D. Ga. April 17, 2006)
The District Court affirmed the Bankruptcy Court’s dismissal of the debtor’s case and the debtors moved for reconsideration. The court looked to the substance of the motion and determined it was based upon Rule 59(e) and not Rule 60(b). The debtors did not present arguments of a “strongly convincing nature” so as to be entitled to relief, and did not assert a change in controlling law or newly discovered evidence. The motion was denied.
