Opinion
Case No. 14 C 1719
09-08-2015
MEMORANDUM ORDER
Plaintiff John F. Johnson ("Johnson") has once again continued his pattern of filing truly illegible communications in this disposed-of action that seek to resuscitate the action -- a case that had been dismissed as frivolous in the legal sense in mid-March 2014 (see the attached two-page docket that reflects his successive filings). This Court orders:
1. that the Clerk's Office strike Johnson's most recent letter (Dkt. No. 19, received in the Clerk's Office on September 1) from the file;
2. that the Clerk's Office not accept any further communications from Johnson for filing, instead returning them to him unfiled; and
3. that because nothing else appears to deter Johnson, who like the Energizer Bunny keeps going and going, he will be fined $200 for each further communication that he may inadvisably transmit to this District Court.

07/30/2015 | 17 | MEMORANDUM Order: Nearly a year and a half ago (on March 14, 2014) thisCourt issued a memorandum order that dismissed, as frivolous in the legalsense, the Complaint and this action that had been tendered by JohnJohnson ("Johnson"). Another ten-plus months then elapsed before Johnsonthen resurfaced with another nearly illegible submission that disclosed nobasis for action by this Court, so that it struck the new filing from the courtfile in a brief January 27, 2015 memorandum order.Now Johnson hastendered another communication to this Court that repeatedly states thathe was always telling the truth and asks this Court to telephone him. There isof course nothing pending before this Court, but because this newsubmission is by definition an ex parte communication, this memorandumorder attaches the document to make it part of the court file and, as thisCourt did with the January submission, then strikes it from the file.

01/27/2015 | 10 | MEMORANDUM Order With the dismissal of Case No. 14 C 1719 havingbecome final so many months ago, plaintiff cannot proceed as he has bytreating it as a vehicle for his new submission. But beyond that, this Court'slaborious perusal of his nearly illegibly printed filing discloses no basis forany current action by this Court. Instead it simply strikes that new filing (Diet.No. 8) from the court file. (For further details see Memorandum Order.Signed by the Honorable Milton I.
