IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA
FIFTH DISTRICT
DONALD OTIS WILLIAMS, Petitioner, v. Case No. 5D20-2628
CORRECTED
STATE OF FLORIDA, Respondent. ________________________________/ Opinion filed December 31, 2020 Petition for Writ of Mandamus, Heidi Davis, Respondent Judge. Donald Otis Williams, Raiford, pro se. No Appearance for Appellee.
PER CURIAM.
This Court earlier denied Petitioner’s petition for writ of mandamus stemming from Lake County Circuit Court Case Number 2000-CF-2130. Because it appears that Petitioner’s filings are abusive, repetitive, malicious, or frivolous, Petitioner is cautioned that any further similarly inappropriate pro se filings in this Court asserting claims stemming from Lake County Circuit Court Case No. 2000-CF-2130 may result in sanctions such as a bar on pro se filing in this Court and referral to prison officials for disciplinary proceedings, which may include forfeiture of gain time. See § 944.279(1), Fla. Stat. (2019); State v. Spencer, 751 So. 2d 47 (Fla. 1999). EVANDER, C.J., WALLIS and EDWARDS, JJ., concur.
