The usual Section 7459(b) off-the-bencher rarely sees reconsideration. The last one I remember was six (count ’em, six) years ago: see my blogpost “Correction and a Rant,” 8/24/18. And that was a howler.

Today Judge Morrison grants reconsideration out of time (that is, past the 30-day cutoff of Rule 161) in Krishan K. Gossain & Kavita Gossain, Docket No. 21812-22, filed 5/29/24, and I wish he’d told us why, besides that both parties consented.

The off-the-bencher here was issued back in January; see my blogpost “Till Section 469(c)(7)(b) Does Us Part,” 1/16/24.

The opinion seemed clear enough, a 750-hour count for real estate pro status.

I’d like an example of what circumstances justify out-of-time reconsideration of an off-the-bencher, other than the kind of blunder described in my first-above-mentioned blogpost. Practitioners need all the guidance they can get.
