PER CURIAM.

     Due to Petitioner’s apparent abuse of the legal process by his
abusive, repetitive, malicious, or frivolous pro se filings attacking
his judgment and sentence in Duval County Circuit Court Case
No. 2005-CF-932, this Court issued an order directing Petitioner
to show cause why he should not be prohibited from future pro se
filings. 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 Petitioner
is abusing the judicial process and should be barred from further
pro se filings.

     Therefore, in order to conserve judicial resources, the Clerk of
this Court is directed not to accept any further pro se filings
concerning the above 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. (2023);
Simpkins v. State, 909 So. 2d 427, 428 (Fla. 5th DCA 2005).

   FUTURE PRO SE FILINGS PROHIBITED; CERTIFIED OPINION
FORWARDED TO DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS.
