Chon v. USA Doc. 5 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF UTAH TAE H. CHON, MEMORANDUM DECISION AND ORDER DENYING MOTION TO SET ASIDE JUDGMENT Petitioner, v. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Civil Case No. 1:19-CV-135 TS Criminal Case No. 2:01-CR-487 TS Respondent. District Judge Ted Stewart This matter is before the Court on Petitioner’s Motion to Set Aside Judgment. Petitioner seeks relief under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b)(1). That provision allows for relief where there has been a “mistake, inadvertence, surprise, or excusable neglect.” “[T]he ‘mistake’ provision in Rule 60(b)(1) provides for the reconsideration of judgments only where: (1) a party has made an excusable litigation mistake or an attorney in the litigation has acted without authority from a party, or (2) where the judge has made a substantive mistake of law or fact in the final judgment or order.” 1 Having carefully considered Petitioner’s Motion, the Court finds that he has failed to demonstrate a mistake of law or fact. It is therefore ORDERED that Petitioner’s Motion to Set Aside Judgment (Docket No. 4) is DENIED. DATED this 30th day of December, 2019. BY THE COURT: Ted Stewart United States District Judge 1 Cashner v. Freedom Stores, Inc., 98 F.3d 572, 576 (10th Cir. 1996). Dockets.Justia.com
