We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district Kissi v. Pramco II, LLC, No. 1:08-cv-01174-GBL-JFA (E.D. court. Va. filed Mar. 4, 2009, and entered Mar. 6, 2009). Appellee DLA Piper has moved, pursuant to Fed. R. App. P. 38, for an order enjoining Kissi from filing an action in any court, including state courts, without prior approval. the authority supporting such cited a by DLA blanket Piper to injunction. be We find unpersuasive However, in light in of Kissi s repeated abusive filings, we find sanctions appropriate. Accordingly, we grant the motion as follows: Kissi is hereby directed to pay DLA Piper the sum of $500; moreover, he is enjoined from filing any further actions in this court until this sanction is paid and a district court judge certifies that his claim is not frivolous. We deny Kissi s motion for appointment of counsel, as well as all his remaining pending motions, and dispense with oral argument adequately because presented in the the facts and materials legal before contentions the court are and argument would not aid the decisional process.
