Cedric JEFFERSON, etc., Petitioner, v. Julie JONES, etc., Respondent, 180 So. 3d 248
Opinion
PER CURIAM. On November 4, 2015, this court denied Cedric Jefferson’s most recent petition for writ of habeas corpus, and ordered Jefferson to show cause why he should not be prohibited from filing with this court any further pro se appeals, petitions, motions, or other proceedings related to his criminal convictions and sentences in case numbers 93-1472-B, 94-39169, 94-39724, 94-40672, 94-40673, 95-8824, 95-8825, 95-8827, 95-13969, 95-13970, 95-14776, 95-15140, 95-16068, and 95-16070.
Jefferson’s response to this court’s order does not demonstrate good cause to justify further filings of appeals, petitions, motions, and other pleadings concerning these convictions and sentences. Accordingly, after balancing Jefferson’s pro se right of access to courts with the court’s need to devote its finite resources to legitimate appeals, see State v.
Spencer, 751 So.2d 47, 48 (Fla.1999), we hereby order that the Clerk of the Court of the Third District Court of Appeal refuse to accept further pro se filings related to case numbers 93-1472-B, 94-39169, 94-39724, 94-40672, 94-40673, 95-8824, 95-8825, 95-8827, 95-13969, 95-13970, 95-14776, 95-15140, 95-16068, and 95-16070, unless filings related to these cases are reviewed and signed by an attorney who is a licensed member of the Florida Bar in good standing.
Additionally, Jefferson is warned that any further and unauthorized pro se filings in these cases will subject him to sanctions, including the issuance of written findings forwarded to the Florida Department of Corrections for consideration by it for disciplinary action, pursuant to
section 944.279(1) of the Florida Statutes. Order issued. . Jefferson previously sought review in case numbers: 3D98-1224, 3D99-2834, 3D99-2395, 3D01-2851, 3D01-1389, 3D01-1612, 3D02-871, 3D03-801, 3D04-266, 3D04-401, 3D06-1392, 3D06-2548, 3D07-1307, 3D08-209, 3D08-358, 3D08-2906, 3D09-595, 3D09-2896, 3D09-3026, 3D10-3358, 3D11-1707, 3D11-1746, 3D11-2983, 3D11-3288, 3D12-488, 3D12-2210, 3D12-2372, 3D12-2845, 3D13-3077, 3D13-1583, 3D14-2575, and 3D15-2230.
