Per Curiam. Pro se appellant Keith Washington has a timely
appeal solely with respect to a March 12, 2002 order denying
Washington's motion for leave to file a summary judgment motion
pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c). The motion at issue was filed
over two years after summary judgment was granted in favor of
defendants and the case was closed. The district court has denied
repeated motions to reopen the case pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P.
60(b). Under the circumstances, the motion for leave to file
pursuant to Rule 56(c) was properly denied.
Affirmed.
