ORDER
LESLIE HOFFMAN PRICE, UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE.
On October 26, 2021, in case number 6:21-cv-1372-RBD-GJK (Doc. No. 20), the Honorable Roy B. Dalton, Jr., United States District Judge, precluded Lena Marie Lindberg (“Lindberg”) from filing any pleading or filing without prescreening for arguable merit by a judicial officer. Doc. No. 1. Lindberg's most recent documents have been submitted to the undersigned for review pursuant to the terms of the October 26, 2021 Order, which include the following:
The matter was before Judge Dalton sua sponte in light of Lindberg's six pending cases at that time: 6:21-cv-1372-RBD-GJK, 6:21-cv-1417-RBD-GJK, 6:21-cv-1544-RBD-GJK, 6:21-cv-1587, 6:21-cv-1704-RBD-GJK, 6:21-cv-1747-RBD-EJK, and 6:21-cv-1783-RBD-EJK. See 6:21-cv-1372-RBD-GJK, Doc. No. 20. Those matters have all since been closed.
This matter was reassigned to the undersigned as the assigned Magistrate Judge on October 30, 2023. Doc. No. 31.

2. USPS Ground Advantage Mail received on September 12, 2024 to contain the following materials:
a. A letter to the Clerk of Court for the Middle District of Florida, Orlando Division referencing and attaching letters sent to the Clerk of Court for the Supreme Court of the United States, Clerks of Court for the United States Courts of Appeals of the Seventh and Eleventh Circuits, the Clerk of Court for the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, and the Clerk of Court for the United States District Court for the District of Illinois.

e. Copies of documents previously returned to Lindberg by prior order, see Doc. No. 36.
f. A packet containing copies, multiple pages per sheet, of various unexplained documents, to include court orders, correspondence with attorneys, receipts, records from the State of Florida, copies of envelopes, and emails sent by Lindberg.
g. A packet containing copies, multiple pages per sheet, of envelopes, receipts, and proofs of service.
h. A letter to Lindberg from the United States Department of Justice Civil Rights Division notifying Lindberg that no further action would be taken regarding a June 2, 2024 complaint.
i. A document titled, “Information to Pair with the Enclosed Copies of USPS Mail Listed in the Accompanying Index Involving Dates 11/17/2020 through 8/31/2024.”
3. An envelope received September 13, 2024 which contains a copy of an envelope sent to Lindberg by the United States District Court for the District of Illinois, a Sanctions Order entered by the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, a copy of an envelope sent to the United States Attorneys Office for District of Illinois by Lindberg, and copies of several receipts.
4. An envelope received on September 16, 2024, to include a September 10, 2024 letter to the Clerk of Court for the Middle District of Florida, Orlando Division, regarding filings sent to other Courts and various perceived wrongs against Lindberg, and copies of tracking numbers, receipts, and envelopes.
Upon review, there is no apparent basis for making these filings in Lindberg's closed federal cases under the Local Rules of this Court or the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. To the extent that these filings seek any affirmative relief from the Court, there is no arguable merit to the request(s). And to the extent that Lindberg seeks relief regarding matters pending in other courts outside of the District Court for the Middle District of Florida, this Court lacks jurisdiction to hear matters pending in other courts. Finally, as some of these documents have previously been submitted to the Court and ordered returned to Lindberg, these filings have no arguable merit and should be returned to Lindberg in accordance with the Court's prior directives.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the documents described in this Order have no arguable merit or are abusive, frivolous, scandalous, or duplicative. The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to return the original documents to Lindberg after making a copy for the Court and to otherwise follow the Court's directions set forth in 6:21-cv-1372-RBD-GJK, Doc. No. 20.
DONE and ORDERED.
