    Submitted: August 12, 2019
    Decided: October 23, 2019
    ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR REARGUMENT
    This 23rd day of October, 2019, upon consideration of the record in this case
    and the Motion for Reargument (“Motion”) filed by Stanley C. Lowicki, it appears
    to the Court that:
    1. On August 5, 2019, this Court affirmed the Court of Common Pleas’
    decision that Mr. Lowicki did not have a right to appeal a Justice of the Peace Court
    decision regarding a red light traffic camera citation. Mr. Lowicki timely filed this
    Motion alleging the Court misapprehended the law.
    2. A motion for reargument will be granted if the Court has “overlooked
    a controlling precedent or legal principles, or the [C]ourt has misapprehended the
    law or facts such as would have changed the outcome of the underlying decision.”!

    2010 WL 703051
    , at *1 (Del. Super. Feb. 26,
    2010) (citing Lamourine v. Mazda Motor of Am., Inc., 
    2007 WL 3379048
    , at *1 (Del. Super. Sept.
    24, 2007)).
    Movants neither may present new arguments nor rehash those already presented.’
    The movant “has the burden of demonstrating newly discovered evidence, a change
    in the law or manifest injustice.”?
    3. Mr. Lowicki contends in his Motion that the Court erred (i) in its
    statutory interpretation and application of 
    11 Del. C
    . § 4101 and 
    21 Del. C
    . § 4101,
    (ii) by finding Mr. Lowicki waived certain arguments surrounding 
    11 Del. C
    . § 4101,
    and (iii) by not resolving the merits of Mr. Lowicki’s appeal. The State argues the
    Motion should be denied because Mr. Lowicki merely rehashes arguments already
    presented or raises new arguments for the first time.
    4. The longer Mr. Lowicki’s crusade against this traffic citation goes on,
    the more untethered from reality it becomes. Mr. Lowicki’s present Motion is nearly
    indecipherable, and attempting to coherently summarize his arguments would be an
    exercise in futility. The Court’s August 5, 2019 decision thoroughly addressed each
    of the arguments properly before the Court, and further dilation on those topics is
    both unnecessary and contrary to the parties’ interest in finally resolving this case.
    Mr. Lowicki’s Motion does not cite any controlling precedent overlooked by the
    Court, and he has not identified any newly discovered evidence, a change in the law,

    Reargument is DENIED. IT IS SO ORDERED.
