ORDER
/
16
On October 28, 2011, the undersigned entered an order in this case, after a
17
hearing, setting aside the clerk’s entry of default against defendants Brent Mangham and Michael
18
Walling.1 (Order, Oct. 28, 2011, Dkt. No. 70.) Presently before the court is plaintiff’s “Motion
19
for Show Cause Hearing Regarding Setting Aside Defaults On Defendants, Walling and
20
Mangham and Reinstate Defaults Defendants Mangham,” which is noticed for a December 8,
21
2011 hearing before the undersigned (Dkt. No. 72). In essence, plaintiff seeks reconsideration
22
and reversal of the October 28, 2011 order setting aside the defaults against Mangham and
23
Walling, and seeks a hearing regarding the same. Because oral argument would not materially
24
aid the resolution of the pending motion, this matter is submitted on the briefs and record without

This case proceeds before the undersigned pursuant to Eastern District of California Local
Rule 302(c)(21) and 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1).

a hearing. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 78(b); E. Dist. Local Rule 230(g).2
2
The undersigned denies plaintiff’s motion. The undersigned has fully resolved
3
Mangham’s and Walling’s motion to set aside the clerk’s entry of default after a hearing, and
4
nothing in plaintiff’s present motion warrants another hearing or an evidentiary hearing on the
5
matter. To the extent that plaintiff’s motion is an application for reconsideration directed to the
6
undersigned, it is denied. Plaintiff may, of course, consider seeking reconsideration of the
7
undersigned’s October 28, 2011 order by the district judge assigned to this matter, if appropriate
8
and timely. See E. Dist. Local Rules 230(j) and 303(c).

For the foregoing reasons, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
10
1.
Plaintiff’s “Motion for Show Cause Hearing Regarding Setting Aside
11
Defaults On Defendants, Walling and Mangham and Reinstate Defaults Defendants Mangham”
12
(Dkt. No. 72) is denied.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

The December 8, 2011 hearing on plaintiff’s motion is vacated.
