No. 21] which, liberally construed, appears to be seeking reconsideration of the Court’s order [Doc.

See Servants of Paraclete v.

Moreover, as the Court noted in its order, Plaintiff will be given an opportunity to move for summary judgment at the appropriate time. Plaintiff's motion is therefore DENIED. IT IS SO ORDERED this 19" day of August, 2025.
