Respondent. 	)
On February 27, 2019, the Court issued an order granting the Respondent’s Motion to
Dismiss and denying the Petitioner’s habeas petition with prejudice. 	On March 22, 2019, the
Petitioner filed a Motion for Reconsideration. He asserts that the Court erred by construing one
of his filings as a supplement to his habeas petition as opposed to a motion to amend it.
The Court finds no basis for reconsidering its previous order. 	The Petitioner’s habeas
petition is timed-barred for the reasons articulated in the Court’s order of February 27, 2019. The
Petitioner’s Motion for Reconsideration (Doc. No. 29) is DENIED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated this 30th day of April, 2019.
