ORDER
Before the Court is Plaintiff’s “Motion 60(b)(6) Relief from Finality of Order” [Doc.
No. 13]. Plaintiff previously filed a motion for post-judgment relief under Rule 60, which the Court denied. See Order of Dec. 1, 2025 [Doc. No. 12].
“Rule 60(b) relief ‘is extraordinary and may only be granted in exceptional circumstances.’” Zurich N. Am. v. Matrix Serv., Inc ., 426 F.3d 1281, 1289 (10th Cir. 2005) (quoting Servants of Paraclete v. Does , 204 F.3d 1005, 1009 (10th Cir. 2000)). Obtaining relief under Rule 60(b)(6), as Plaintiff seeks to do here, “is even more difficult to attain and is appropriate only ‘when it offends justice to deny such relief.’” Yapp v. Excel Corp ., 186 F.3d 1222, 1232 (10th Cir. 1999) (quoting Cashner v. Freedom Stores, Inc ., 98 F.3d 572, 580 (10th Cir.1996)). Plaintiff’s motion re-urges arguments that have been previously rejected and fails to identify any exceptional circumstances that would warrant the relief he seeks.
Accordingly, Plaintiff’s motion is denied.
