    MEMORANDUM***

    3

    Plaintiffs appeal the district court's order and judgment of January 28, 1993, granting summary judgment in favor of defendant Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA"), and the court's order of March 8, 1993, denying their motion to amend the judgment. As the district court correctly noted, Cheryl Van Every was authorized by statute to acknowledge the trust indenture, and the Ericksons failed to present evidence that she was a party to the indenture and, therefore, disqualified from taking their acknowledgment. See Mont.Code Ann. Sec. 1-5-417 compiler's comment (West 1993).1 The district court did not abuse its discretion in denying the Ericksons' motion for reconsideration, since that motion simply reiterated the arguments that plaintiffs had advanced in opposition to the summary judgment motion.
