How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that the motion raised grounds that required it to have been brought within one-year but was untimely, thereby depriving the trial court of jurisdiction
• observing that a motion made more than one year after judgment may not be granted on grounds listed under 60(b)(1), (2), or (3)
• noting that the Sixth Circuit “adheres to the view that courts should apply Rule 60(b)(6) only in exceptional or extraordinary circumstances which are not addressed by the first five numbered clauses of the Rule.”
• pursuit of an appeal does not affect time in which a Rule 60(b) motion must be filed
• motion for reconsideration is not contemplated by Rule 59 because it does not seek to alter or amend judgment
