Appeal pursuant to Fla. R. App. P. 9.141(b)(2) from the Circuit Court for Manatee County; Frederick P. Mercurio, Judge. ORDER RESTRICTING APPELLANT FROM FUTURE PRO SE FILINGS PER CURIAM. On September 3, 2020, we dismissed Willie McGee's appeal for failure to comply with an order of this court. That order detailed McGee's initiation of over fifteen proceedings in this court related to his criminal charges in Manatee County circuit court case number 07-CF-1726. We noted that McGee's frequent and meritless filings burdened the limited resources of this court and interfered with the resolution of genuine disputes. From 2008 to present, McGee has filed over fifteen proceedings in this court related to the aforementioned case number,1 including over ten appeals from the denial of postconviction relief that were either affirmed or dismissed. McGee also filed three petitions for writs of habeas corpus that were dismissed. And at least two other appeals, not including this one, were dismissed for failure to comply with orders of this court. In light of his history before this court, we directed McGee to show cause why this court should not direct the clerk of court to reject pleadings filed in this court related to circuit court case number 07-CF-1726 unless such pleading is made in an appeal pending at the time of this order or submitted by a licensed Florida attorney. See State v. Spencer, 751 So. 2d 47, 48-49 (Fla. 1999). McGee failed to respond. Accordingly, we direct the clerk of this court to place in an inactive file any notices of appeal or petitions related to circuit court case number 07-CF-1726 unless the filing is signed by a member in good standing of The Florida Bar. See id. at 49; Fox v. Johnson, 162 So. 3d 139, 140 (Fla. 2d DCA 2014). BLACK, ROTHSTEIN-YOUAKIM, and ATKINSON, JJ., Concur. 1This court affirmed McGee's judgment and sentence in case 2D08-4527. See McGee v. State, 29 So. 3d 1127 (Fla. 2d DCA 2010) (table decision). -2-
