Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus,
A Case of Original Jurisdiction.
Jermaine Lerone Greene, Punta Gorda, pro se.
No Appearance for Appellee.

PER CURIAM.
Petitioner’s apparent abuse of the legal process by his
repetitive, malicious, or frivolous pro se filings that have been
denied or dismissed by this Court on numerous occasions
regarding his judgments and sentences imposed in Lake County
Case No. 35-2013-CF-2220-A, resulted in Petitioner being
cautioned that any further pro se filings in this Court asserting
claims stemming from the identified case number may result in
sanctions. He was also ordered to show cause why he should not
be prohibited from filing any appeal, petition, pleading, or motion
pertaining to the convictions and sentences rendered in this Lake
County Case No. 35-2013-CF-2220-A unless reviewed and signed
by an attorney licensed to practice in the State of Florida. See §
944.279(1), Fla. Stat. (2025); State v. Spencer, 751 So. 2d 47 (Fla.
1999). Having carefully considered Petitioner’s continued abuse
of the legal process in his repetitive filings, and the lack of a
response to said order to show cause, we conclude that Petitioner
is abusing the judicial process and should be barred from further
pro se filings.
Therefore, to conserve judicial resources, Petitioner is
prohibited from filing with this Court any further pro se filings
concerning the above referenced case. The Clerk of this Court is
directed not to accept any further pro se filings concerning this
referenced case. Any future filings regarding the referenced case
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.”). The Clerk is
further directed to forward a certified copy of this opinion to the
appropriate institution for consideration of disciplinary
proceedings. See § 944.279(1), Fla. Stat. (2018); Simpkins v. State,
909 So. 2d 427, 428 (Fla. 5th DCA 2005).
PETITIONER BARRED from further pro se filings.
MAKAR, BOATWRIGHT, and KILBANE, JJ., concur.
