Date Filed Document Text
November 18, 2025 Opinion or Order Filing 18 PAPERLESS ORDER striking #16 and #17 First Amended Complaint. On October 24, 2025, the Court affirmed and adopted Magistrate Judge Marty Fulgueira Elfenbein's Report and Recommendation, [ECF No. 6], and dismissed this case without prejudice for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction. [ECF No. 10]. Since the October 24, 2025 Order, the Court has informed Plaintiff that there is no further action to be taken in this matter, [ECF No. 13], and cautioned that future frivolous filings may result in the Court directing the Clerk not to accept said filings, except in very limited circumstances, [ECF Nos. 15]. Plaintiff, however, has ignored these warnings and continues to engage in frivolous filings. [ECF Nos. 11, 12, 14, 16, and 17]. Plaintiff must desist with his abusive and frivolous filings. Failure to obey this final warning will result in the Court placing Plaintiff on the "restricted filer" list and ordering the Clerk not to accept any future pro se filings from Plaintiff in this case. Signed by Judge Rodolfo A. Ruiz, II on 11/18/2025. (twk)
