Lena Marie LINDBERG, Appellant, v. Bruce Lee ASSAM, Eric Thompson, Vincent Albert Citro, Edward Melvin Fitzgerald, Officer Moderson, Jinelle Gilette, George Penley, Jeannie Hoffhine and David Butler, Appellees.
Due to Appellant's apparent abuse of the legal process by her abusive, repetitive, malicious, or frivolous pro se filings in the above-styled case, this Court issued an Order directing Appellant to show cause why this appeal should not be dismissed and why she should not be prohibited from future pro se filings in this Court. See State v. Spencer, 751 So. 2d 47, 48 (Fla. 1999). Having carefully considered the Response and finding it fails to show cause why sanctions should not be imposed, we conclude that she is abusing the judicial process and sanctions should be imposed.
Therefore, in order to conserve judicial resources, the above-styled case is dismissed, and Appellant is prohibited from filing with this Court any further pro se filings. The Clerk of this Court is directed not to accept any further pro se filings. Any future filings from Appellant will be summarily rejected by the Clerk, unless filed by a member in good standing of The Florida Bar. See Isley v. State, 652 So. 2d 409, 411 (Fla. 5th DCA 1995) (“Enough is enough.”).
FUTURE PRO SE FILINGS PROHIBITED.
PER CURIAM.
EDWARDS, HARRIS and SASSO, JJ., concur.
