Carlos Lorenzo Jackson v. State of Florida

Summary

The Supreme Court of Florida imposed sanctions on Carlos Lorenzo Jackson after concluding that his mandamus petition was frivolous and that his repeated pro se filings related to his criminal cases abused the judicial process. The Court ordered its Clerk to reject future filings concerning those cases unless signed by a Florida Bar member in good standing and to forward the opinion to the Department of Corrections. The Court retained jurisdiction to impose sanctions after previously denying the petition.
