Minute
MINUTE entry before the Honorable John F. Kness: Plaintiffs' Rule 59(e) motion for reconsideration 135 is denied. Under Rule 59(e), a party moving for reconsideration must present newly discovered evidence or establish a manifest error of law or fact. LB Credit Corp. v. Resolution Trust Corp., 49 F.3d 1263, 1267 (7th Cir. 1995). Rule 59(e) does not provide an opportunity to "rehash old arguments," and a manifest error "is not demonstrated by the disappointment of the losing party." Oto v. Metropolitan Life Ins. Co., 224 F.3d 601, 606 (7th Cir. 2000). Arguments raised for the first time in a Rule 59 motion, that could have nonetheless been made earlier, are waived. General Auto Service Station v. City of Chicago, 526 F.3d 991, 1006 (7th Cir. 2008). Plaintiffs' motion does not point to any newly discovered evidence. Rather, Plaintiffs' chief contention is that this Court made a manifest error of fact or law. (Dkt. 135 at 3.) But Plaintiffs' motion simply revisits evidentiary disputes that the Court already considered and rejected. Oto,, 224 F.3d at 606. To the extent Plaintiffs present arguments not previously raised, those arguments are waived and cannot constitute a basis for reconsideration under Rule 59. See, e.g., (Dkt. 135 at 45); General Auto Service Station, 526 F.3d at 1006. Moreover, Plaintiffs do not offer any intervening changes in the law since the motion for summary judgment was decided. As such, the Court is unpersuaded that it "wholesale disregard[ed], misappl[ied], or fail[ed] to recognize controlling precedent." Sedrak v. Callahan, 987 F. Supp. 1063, 1069 (N.D. Ill. 1997). Plaintiffs' motion for reconsideration is therefore denied. Plaintiffs' motion 139 to stay briefing on the pending motion 133 for a bill of costs is dismissed as moot. Any response to the motion for a bill of costs must be filed on or before 8/14/2026. Mailed notice. (exr, ) (Entered: 07/29/2026)
