October 21, 2019 Filing 12 DELETION OF DOCKET ENTRY NUMBER 11 Reason: entered into wrong case number (kric, )
October 21, 2019 Filing 10 ***DOCUMENT MAILED 7 Order Dismissing Case, #8 Judgment placed in U.S. Mail from Greenville Clerks Office to Julian E Rochester 171519 Perry Correctional Institution ALU 192 430 Oaklawn Road Pelzer, SC 29669 (kric, )
October 21, 2019 Filing 8 JUDGMENT dismissing the action without prejudice. (kric, )
October 21, 2019 Filing 7 TEXT ORDER DISMISSING CASE. Mr. Rochester is a state prisoner whose long history of abusive and frivolous filing practices resulted in an Order of Pre-Filing Review. See Order of Pre-Filing Review, Doc. # 6, In Re: Julian Edward Rochester, Misc. No. 2:95-MC-131 (Jan. 29, 1996). On July 10, 2012, the Court further modified Mr. Rochester's Order of Pre-Filing Review to require that he pay the full statutory filing fee in any future non-habeas civil actions. To the extent Mr. Rochester has attempted to name the Undersigned as a party to this action, this Court has thoroughly addressed that issue in a previous order. See Order Adopting Report and Recommendations, Doc. # 21, at 48, Rochester v. Laubshire et al., Civil Action No. 6:12-cv-00236 (July 10, 2012). As noted in that order, a judge may exercise discretion and refuse to recuse himself in proceedings where a litigant is abusing the judicial system, as is Mr. Rochester. This is especially true here, where Mr. Rochester has made no substantiated allegations against the judges of this Court, including the Undersigned. It appears that Mr. Rochester, who has named nearly every judge in this district as a party in his various cases, is doing nothing more than attempting to add judges as parties in order to push for judicial recusal and extend the life span of his cases.In a recent order filed in this case, the magistrate judge directed Mr. Rochester to pay the statutory filing fee within twenty-one (21) days. The magistrate judge also apprised Mr. Rochester that this Court would dismiss this case if he failed to pay the statutory filing fee within the time period specified in the order. Mr. Rochester has failed to pay the statutory filing fee within the twenty-one-day period. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the above-captioned case is DISMISSED without prejudice and any pending motions are DENIED as moot. The Clerk of Court shall close the file. Signed by the Honorable Chief Judge R Bryan Harwell. (kric, )
