Ligeri v. Amazon.com Services LLC

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 6 WESTERN DISTRICT OF WASHINGTON AT SEATTLE BENJAMIN JOSEPH LIGERI, CASE NO. 2:25-cv-00764-JHC Plaintiff, ORDER v. AMAZON.COM SERVICES LLC; AMAZON PAYMENTS, INC.; AMAZON.COM, INC., Defendants.

This matter comes before the Court on pro se Plaintiff Benjamin Joseph Ligeri’s “Motion for Reconsideration and/or Clarification Regarding the Non-Application of General Order 06- 22.” Dkt. # 24. The Court has considered the motion, the rest of the file, and the governing authorities. Being fully advised, the Court rules as follows: “Motions for reconsideration are disfavored and will ordinarily be denied absent a showing of (a) manifest error in the ruling, or (b) facts or legal authority which could not have been brought to the Court’s attention earlier with reasonable diligence.” Cunningham v. Fortney, 2024 WL 1931695, at *1 (W.D. Wash. May 2, 2024) (citing LCR 7(h)(1)). Manifest error is “an error that is plain and indisputable, and that amounts to a complete disregard of the controlling law or the credible evidence in the record.” Gaskill v. Travelers Ins. Co., 2012 WL 13026638, at *] (W.D. Wash. Mar. 28, 2012) (quoting Black’s Law Dictionary 622 (9th ed. 2009)). Because || the motion does not seek to satisfy these standards, to the extent it is a request for reconsideration, the Court DENIES it.

4 Next, the motion takes issue with the “non-application” of GO 06-22. But that General || Order addresses the Court’s response with respect to COVID-19, which is unrelated to Plaintiff's apparent concerns.

7 Finally, the motion seeks clarification with respect to the Court’s July 15, 2025 order at g || Dkt. #21. But that order addresses only Plaintiff's apparent request for recusal. The Court’s July 30, 2025 order at Dkt. # 25, filed after the present motion, addresses Plaintiff's Motion to || Vacate Judicial Reassignment. That order explains the application of GO 03-25 to this matter.

11 Dkt. # 25 at 5-6.

12 Dated this 22nd day of August, 2025.
