Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court

GRIFFIN, Circuit Judge.

Defendant-appellant Bharat Patel (“appellant”) appeals an order of the district court denying his motion for relief from judgment on the basis that the motion was not filed within a “reasonable time” as required by Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b)(4). We affirm and hold that because appellant waited over eleven months after the district court acquired jurisdiction over him to file his motion for relief from judgment, the district court did not abuse its discretion in ruling that the motion was not filed within a reasonable time.
