November 17, 2009.
Lower Tribunal No(s). DR00-2000-RV-190, DR00-2000-RV-1168, 5D04-3393.
To the extent that the petitioner challenges the orders in the Fifth District Court of Appeal and the Circuit Court of the Ninth Judicial Circuit, in and for Oceola County, Florida, prohibiting pro se filings, the petition for writ of mandamus is denied. See Huffman v. State, 813 So. 2d 10, 11 (Fla. 2000); State ex rel. North St. Lucie River Drainage Dist. v. Kanner, 11 So. 2d 889, 890 (Fla. 1943); see also Migliore v. City of Lauderhill 415 So. 2d 62, 63 (Fla. 4th DCA 1982) (stating that mandamus "is not an appropriate vehicle for review of a merely erroneous decision nor is it proper to mandate the doing (or undoing) of a discretionary act"), approved, 431 So. 2d 986 (Fla. 1983). To the extent that the petitioner challenges the constitutionality of sections 944.279 and 944.28, Florida Statutes, the petition is hereby dismissed because this Court generally will not consider the repetitive petitions of persons who have abused the judicial processes of the lower courts such that they have been barred from filing certain actions. See Pettway v. State, 776 So. 2d 930 (Fla. 2000). PARIENTE, LEWIS, CANADY, LABARGA, and PERRY, JJ., concur.
