United States Eighth Circuit

A motion for reconsideration under Rule 60(b), of dismissal of a race discrimination action, was properly denied after a pro se plaintiff failed to respond to a summary judgment motion; a court is not responsible for advising a pro se litigant of filing deadlines, and judgment was entered "on the merits."
