Jones v. Kijakazi

District Court, D. Montana

Jones v. Kijakazi

Trial Court Opinion

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF MONTANA GREAT FALLS DIVISION

SHELLY MARIE JONES, Plaintiff, CV 21-48-GF-JTJ

Vs. ORDER KILOLO KIJAKAZI, Acting Commissioner of the Social Security Administration, Defendant.

The Court issued a Memorandum and Order on February 28, 2022, remanding this case for further administrative proceedings. (Doc. 18 at 12). Judgment was entered on the same day. (Doc. 19). Defendant has moved to amend the Judgment under Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e). Plaintiff opposes the motion. (Doc. 22). Rule 59(e) authorizes a district court to amend a judgment: 1) to correct a clear legal error; 2) to prevent a manifest injustice; 3) to address newly discovered evidence that was not available when the court made its decision; or 4) to incorporate an intervening change in controlling law. Zimmerman v. City of Oakland,

255 F.3d 734, 740

(9th Cir. 2001). None of these bases exist in this

case.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED: Defendant’s Motion to Amend Judgment (Doc. 20) is DENIED. DATED this 19th day of October, 2022.
