MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
SHIRAA. SCHEINDLIN, District Judge:I. INTRODUCTION
In an Opinion and Order on August 25, 2014 (“August 25 Order”), I granted in part and denied in part Defendants’ joint motion to dismiss.1 Both FTE and Defendants now move for partial reconsideration of the August 25 Order.2 In the alternative, Defendants request that the Court certify the res judicata issue for interlocutory appeal. For the following reasons, both motions are DENIED.
II. LEGAL STANDARD
A. Motion for Reconsideration
“The standard for granting ... a motion [for reconsideration] is strict, and reconsideration will generally be denied unless the moving party can point to controlling decisions or data that the court overlooked- — matters, in other words, that might reasonably be expected to alter the conclusion reached by the court.”3 Reconsideration of a court’s previous order is “an extraordinary remedy to be employed sparingly in the interests of finality and conservation of scarce judicial resources.” 4 Typical grounds for reconsideration include “an intervening change of controlling law, the availability of new evidence, or the need to correct a clear error or prevent manifest injustice.”5
B. Certification for Interlocutory Appeal
The decision whether to grant an interlocutory appeal lies within the district court’s discretion.6 Section 1292(b) allows *386a district judge to certify a question or Order to the appellate court when it is “not otherwise appealable under this section” if she is “of the opinion that such order involves [1] a controlling question of law as to which there is [2] substantial ground for difference of opinion and that [3] an immediate appeal from the order may materially advance the ultimate termination of the litigation.” Only “exceptional circumstances justify a departure from the basic policy of postponing appellate review until after the entry of a final judgment.”7
III. DISCUSSION
A. FTE’s Motion
FTE has not pointed to any new or overlooked facts, intervening changes in law, or the possibility of manifest injustice. Instead, FTE’s motion rehashes arguments that I considered and rejected in the August 25 Order.
FTE contends that the Court should reconsider its ruling that res judica-ta bars FTE’s non-Section 32(1) claims.8 Because this Court determined that the Second .Circuit’s dismissal of the Section 32(1) claims was not an “adjudication on the merits,” FTE argues that res judicata does not bar any of its claims.9 Although FTE pled all but two of its non-Section 32(1) claims in its Second Amended Complaint (“SAC”), it abandoned them in its Third Amended Complaint (“TAC”) for tactical reasons.10 The remaining two claims were pled for the first time in the present Complaint.11 By abandoning its claims, FTE deliberately prevented any adjudication on the merits.
Even if FTE could avoid the application of res judicata, all of its non-Section 32(1) claims would be time-barred. Because FTE asserted its Section 32(1) claims in each of its complaints, those claims were tolled between 2004 and 2014.12 But FTE’s non-Section 32(1) claims were not tolled. Under New York law, tolling does not apply to claims that a plaintiff has voluntarily dropped.13 FTE’s claims accrued in January 2001 when Defendants began using the Marks.14 The applicable statutes of limitations&emdash;none of which are more than six years&emdash;had run by 2014 when FTE filed the Complaint.15 *387Finally, although trademark infringement is a “continuing wrong,” laches bars both damages and injunctive relief.16 FTE “had knowledge of defendant’s use of its marks” and “inexcusably delayed in taking action with respect thereto.”17 Defendants would be prejudiced if FTE were allowed to resurrect its non-Section 32(1) claims. Defendants consented to FTE’s motion for leave to file the TAC presumably because FTE agreed to drop the non-Section 32(1) claims.18 FTE may not now reintroduce these claims in this decades-long litigation.
B. Defendants’ Motion
Similarly, Defendants have failed to identify any “controlling decisions or data that the court overlooked” that might warrant reconsideration of the August 25 Order.
First, Defendants argue that the Court overlooked certain statements from the TAC that show that the alleged infringement began in 1992, not 2001.19 Specifically, Defendants contend that FTE’s claims are time-barred because “no later than [] 1992, Pepsico was openly using the marks ... based on the authority of VAO-SPI.”20 At the outset, I note that Defendants may not assert a new argument for the first time on reconsideration.21 In their motion to dismiss, Defendants did not argue that FTE’s trademark claims accrued in 1992. Instead, they argued that FTE’s “antecedent misappropriation” claim accrued in 1992 and is therefore time-barred.22
*388In any event, Defendants’ argument is meritless. In the Complaint, FTE alleges that WO-SPI&emdash;FTE’s predecessor in interests&emdash;“authorized” PepsiCo to use the Marks as a licensee.23 Defendants cannot explain how they or their predecessor&emdash; VAO-SPI&emdash;could have infringed the Marks by supplying vodka bearing the Marks to a party authorized to use them. Therefore, the infringement did not' begin until 2001 when “SPI [successor in interest to VAO-SPI] induced PepsiCo to purport to assign its rights to the [] marks to Allied Do-mecq” by “falsely representing] themselves to be WO-SPI’s legitimate successor.” 24
Second, Defendants argue that the Court should reconsider its ruling regarding FTE’s standing because allowing FTE to cure its standing defect would be “manifestly unfair.”25 Under the “manifest unfairness” exception, “[a] prior jurisdictional dismissal has full res judicata effect when it is manifestly unfair to permit a second action after [the plaintiff] satisfies] a precondition that easily could have been satisfied at the time of the prior action.”26 I already considered and rejected Defendants’ argument because-as Defendants concede-the “manifest unfairness” exception is not recognized in the Second Circuit.27
Nor should the Court certify the “manifest unfairness” issue for appeal. While resolution of this issue might advance the termination of this litigation, Defendants’ request does not raise “a controlling question of law as to which there is substantial ground for difference of opinion.”28 Only the Fourth Circuit has recognized this exception and only in a very narrow context. In Stebbins v. Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company, the Fourth Circuit held that res judicata may bar a plaintiffs claims&emdash;even where they •have not been fully litigated on the merits&emdash;if “the circumstances are such that it would be manifestly unfair to subject the defendant to such an action.”29 Stebbins involved a serial litigant who had made a “career” out of suing insurance companies and had previously exhibited an “intentional, wilful, and contemptuous disregard of both Court and statutory rules and requirements.” 30 In one suit, the plaintiff filed an untimely Title VII claim after receiving a right-to-sue notice.31 In dismissing the claim, the district court relied on an earlier evidentiary hearing in which another judge found that the plaintiff was not qualified to be a claims adjuster.32 On *389appeal, the Fourth Circuit held that it would be “manifestly unfair” to the defendant to allow the plaintiff to renew his Title VII claim.33 The court reasoned that the plaintiff had intentionally delayed in filing, and “[m]ore importantly” he had participated in a “full-blown trial” on the merits of his qualifications.34
Although the Fourth Circuit recognizes the “manifest unfairness” exception, it has limited it to cases where a plaintiffs claims were “subject to an actual trial on the merits.”35 There has been no trial on the merits in the instant case. In fact, over the course of this decades-long litigation, the parties have never advanced beyond the pleading stage or conducted discovery. In addition, Plaintiffs’ standing defect was not “intentional, wilful and contemptuous.” 36 Therefore, even if this circuit recognized the manifest unfairness exception, there would be no “difference of opinion” as it is clearly inapplicable here.

.Moreover, Defendants support their new argument with allegations drawn from the TAC in FTE III but omitted from FTE's present Complaint. As noted, given its tardiness, I need not consider this argument at all. However, I note in passing that “[a] party's assertion of fact in a pleading is a judicial admission by which it normally is bound throughout the course of the proceeding,” it is not considered binding in a subsequent proceeding. Setevage v. Department of Homeland Sec., 539 Fed.Appx. 11, 13 (2d Cir.2013) (citing Bellefonte Re Ins. Co. v. Argonaut Ins. Co., 757 F.2d 523, 528-29 (2d Cir.1985)). Accord American Tissue, Inc. v.

Therefore, these allegations are not binding here.

. Id. ¶ 39. Defendants also argue that the limitations period should not have been tolled between 2004 and 2014 because C.P.L.R. § 205 only applies to toll the statute of limitation when "it is the same person or entity whose rights are sought to be vindicated in both actions.” Def. Mem. at 4 n. 2. But section 205 contains no such limitation. In any event, regardless of whether FTE had standing, it asserted claims on its own behalf from 2004 through 2014.
