OPINION AND ORDER

SWEENEY, Judge

On Augusl 25,2016, the court granted del'endant's motion to dismiss for lack of subject

matter jurisdiction pursuant to Rule l2(b)(l) ofthe Rules of the United States Court ofFederal

Claims ("RCFC"). Jordan v. United States, 128 Fed. C\.46 (201'6). On September 30'2016,

plaintiff moved lor relief from a judgment or order pursuant to RCFC 60(b)(6) and on November

22,2016, the court denied plaintiff s motion. Cunently before the court is plaintifls December

9, 2016 motion for reconsideration ofthe court's November 22,2016 decision.

In his September 30, 2016 motion, plaintitisought to have the court "modify the decision

set forth in its Opinion and Order or August 25,2016 by addressing the sought after alternative

remedy of remanding this matter to the appropriate u.s. District." Mot. for Relief l. In denying

the requested reliel, the court concluded, in its November 22,2016 Opinion and Order, that

plaintilf had failed "to identify the exceptional circumstances necessary to justily such

extraordinary reliel," and that "although plaintiff claimed in his amended complaint that he did

not seek a review ofJudge Kendall's decision, that is exactly what he sought." op.&order2.

Although difficult to parse, plaintiff s cunent motion appears to seek the exact same relief:

Now comes the Self-Represented Plaintiff, Melza E. Jordan, Sr',

("Jordan") and submit this motion for reconsideration of the

entered opinion and order ofNovember 22,2016, seeking to have

this Court to rescind the entered opinion and order ofNovember

22,2016, and seeks to have this Court to incorporate an analysis

and discussion about the alternative relief sought of action-

?0lq 1,a00 0000 8053 Lqea
transfer the case to the appropriate district court for adjudicationinto the entered opinion and order ofAugust 25, 2016.

Mot. for Recons. 1.

Because plaintiff continues to seek reliefthat this court lacks thejurisdiction to grant

(review ofJudge Kendall's decision) and because plaintiff continues to seek reliefthat plaintiff

has at all times been free to pursue without a ruling by this court (review ofJudge Kendall's

decision by the United States Court ofAppeals for the Seventh Circuit), plaintiff s efforts have

risen to the level of frivolous litigation. See Hemphill v. Kimberly-Clark Com., 374 Fed. Appx.

41, 45 (Fed. Cir. 2010) (affirming the district court's finding that plaintilf s actions were

harassing and frivolous, based "both on the number ofher filings and their lack of merit");

Fullard v. United States, 78 Fed. Cl. 294, 302 (2007) ("Plaintiff s repeated attempts to prosecute

civil rights claims against private parties and state officials, which this court already determined

are not within its jurisdiction to decide, exemplifies frivolous litigation."); Chandler v. United

states, 3l Fed. cl. 106, I l0-l I (1994) (finding frivolous litigation where plaintiff continually

disregarded the holding ofthe courl ofFederal claims and other courts and "continue[d] to

prosecute his meritless claims with abusive zeal").

Accordingly, plaintiff s motion is DENIED. In addition, plaintiff is ENJOINED from

submitting further documents to the court regarding the above-captioned case. The Clerk shall

not accept any further filings from plaintiff without first consulting with the undersigned.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
