Supreme Court of Florida
James Bernard Campbell v. State of Florida
June 11, 2020296 So. 3d 893
Summary
The Court sanctioned Campbell after concluding that his repeated, frivolous, meritless, and repetitive filings concerning the same criminal case abused the judicial process and burdened the Court's resources. It barred the Clerk from accepting future pro se filings concerning that case unless signed by a Florida Bar member in good standing and directed that a certified copy of the opinion be sent to the Department of Corrections because Campbell's motion was frivolous. The Court had previously dismissed the motion to reopen the direct appeal and retained jurisdiction to consider sanctions.
