Adam DIRESTA, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
Adam Diresta, pro se, appeals the postconviction court's denial of his Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(a) motion to correct illegal sentence in Orange County Circuit Court Case No. 98-CF-8255. We affirm the postconviction court's order and caution Diresta that abusive, repetitive, malicious, or frivolous filings directed to Orange County Circuit Court Case No. 98-CF-8255 may result in sanctions such as a bar on pro se filings in this Court and referral to prison officials for disciplinary proceedings, which may include forfeiture of gain time. See State v. Spencer, 751 So. 2d 47 (Fla. 1999); § 944.279(1), Fla. Stat. (2020).

PER CURIAM.
