April 20, 2022 Filing 1 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE ORDER: IT IS HEREBY ORDERED BY THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE in its capacity as the supervisor of the assignment of cases, that ------ 1. Mr. Matthew Crawford, or anyone, other than an attorney, acting on his behalf, is enjoined from filing any new civil action or proceeding in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois without first obtaining leave by way of the following procedures: a. Any materials Mr. Crawford, or anyone, other than an attorney, acting on his behalf, wishes to submit for filing shall be delivered to Room 2050, Office of the Clerk at the Courthouse in Chicago. Only the Clerk or deputies specifically designated by the Clerk may accept such documents. b. Where the document submitted is a complaint, it shall be accompanied by a motion captioned a Motion Seeking Leave to File Pursuant to Order of Executive Committee. That motion shall, in addition to requesting leave to file the complaint, include a sworn statement certifying that the claims raised by or on behalf of Mr. Crawford in the complaint are new claims never before raised in any federal court. c. Whenever Mr. Crawford submits a document for filing, the clerk or designated deputy shall accept the papers, stamp them received, and forward them to the Executive Committee. 2. The Executive Committee will examine any complaints submitted by or on behalf of Mr. Crawford to determine whether they should be filed. 3. If Mr. Crawford seeks leave to proceed in forma pauperis, the Committee will also determine if such leave should be granted. The Committee will deny leave to file any complaints if they are legally frivolous or are merely duplicative of matters already litigated. The Committee may deny leave to file any complaints not filed in conformity with this order. 4. If the Executive Committee enters an order denying leave to file the materials, the clerk shall retain the order in a miscellaneous file with the title "In the matter of Matthew Crawford" and cause a copy of the order to be mailed to Mr. Crawford. 5. If the Executive Committee enters an order granting leave to file the materials, the clerk will cause the materials to be stamped filed as of the date received and shall cause the case to be assigned to a judge in accordance with the rules. The clerk shall also cause a copy of the order to be mailed to Mr. Crawford. 6. Mr. Crawford's failure to comply with this order may, within the discretion of the Executive Committee, result in him being held in contempt of court and punished accordingly. 7. Nothing in this order shall be construed ----- a. to affect Mr. Crawford's ability to defend himself in any criminal action, b. to deny Mr. Crawford access to the federal courts through the filing of a petition for a writ of habeas corpus or other extraordinary writ, or c. to deny Mr. Crawford access to the United States Court of Appeals or the United States Supreme Court. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED That any password issued to Matthew Crawford for access to the electronic filing system shall be disabled. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED That any new complaints filed by Mr. Crawford and transferred to this Court from another jurisdiction shall be reviewed by the Executive Committee to determine whether they should be filed. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED That the Clerk shall cause to be created and maintained a miscellaneous docket with the title "In the matter of Matthew Crawford" and case number 22 CV 01949. The miscellaneous docket shall serve as the repository of this order and any order or minute order entered pursuant to this order. All orders will be entered on that docket following standard docketing procedures. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED That to maintain judicial security, Mr. Crawford shall sign in upon arrival at the U.S. Dirksen Courthouse and that a representative of the U.S. Marshals Service shall accompany Mr. Crawford at all times while he is present in the Everett McKinley Dirksen Building at 219 S. Dearborn Street, Chicago, Illinois, 60604, and IT IS FURTHER ORDERED That the Clerk shall cause a copy of this order to be mailed to Mr. Crawford at 994 Wildwood Dr., New Lenox, IL 60451, the address provided in his filings with this Court.
