Should the standard of review in a Rule 59(e) post-judgment motion to amend following a dismissal with prejudice under Rule 12(b)(6) be clarified
Question presented: 1. Should this Court clarify the standard of review in a Rule 59(e) post judgment motion to amend following a dismissal with prejudice under Rule 12(b)(6) to address the lack of uniformity among its Circuits? 2. Should this Court clarify the judicial discretion standard for Rule 59(e) post judgment motions to amend following a dismissal with prejudice under Rule 12(b)(6) to emphasize the judicial policy favoring decisions on the merits as reflected in this Court’s precedents and in the spirit of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure rather than setting procedural traps for litigants which deprive them of their ability to seek remedies for wrongful conduct? i
