Board of County Commissioners of Morgan County, Colorado, Petitioner v. Rainsford J. Winslow, Respondent

Summary

The court held that a district court has jurisdiction to enjoin a litigant from filing actions or pleadings pro se within the counties of that judicial district when the litigant has seriously abused the judicial process. Because the court of appeals incorrectly concluded that only the supreme court could issue such an injunction, the judgment was reversed and the case was remanded for consideration of Winslow's remaining challenges, including whether the injunction was an abuse of discretion. No separate opinions were issued.
