   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  22-1902
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota   
   [PUBLISHED] [Erickson, Author, with Melloy and Stras, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Civil rights. A hearing panel assigned the case on the merits 
   is free to revisit a motion to dismiss for want of appellate jurisdiction 
   even though an administrative or motions panel of the court has previously 
   denied such a motion; this case is distinguishable from cases applying the 
   doctrine of the law of the case because the record has been developed 
   since the entry of the order, and it is clear that the panel's ruling was 
   based on an inapplicable basis for tolling the appeal period; the district 
   court did not err in characterizing plaintiff's motion as one for 
   reconsideration and, as such, the motion did not toll the time for filing 
   a notice of appeal; her appeal is untimely, and the appeal is dismissed. 
   Judge Melloy, dissenting.
