IRWIN HICKS, JR.,

    Petitioner,

    v.

STATE OF FLORIDA,

    Respondent.
                  _____________________________

Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus,
A Case of Original Jurisdiction.

Irwin Hicks, Jr., Arcadia, pro se.

No Appearance for Respondent.

                        November 17, 2023

PER CURIAM.

     Having considered Petitioner’s response, filed October 27,
2023, to this Court’s order, and finding that it fails to show cause
why sanctions should not be imposed, we conclude that Petitioner
is abusing the judicial process and should be barred from further
pro se filings concerning Lake County Circuit Court Case Nos.
2014-CF-491, 2014-CF-821, 2014-CF-822, and 2014-CF-823.

     Therefore, because Petitioner’s repetitious, frivolous filings
have become an abuse of the legal process, we hold that Petitioner
is barred from future pro se filings in this Court concerning Lake
County Circuit Court Case Nos. 2014-CF-491, 2014-CF-821, 2014-
CF-822, and 2014-CF-823. The Clerk of the Court is directed not
to accept any future filings regarding the referenced cases, unless
they are filed by a member in good standing of The Florida Bar.
This includes any post-disposition motion filed in response to this
order.

    FURTHER PRO SE FILINGS PROHIBITED.

MAKAR, EISNAUGLE, and KILBANE, JJ., concur.
