Hawkins v. Jones
Annotate this CaseDefendant was convicted of sexual battery on an inmate by a law enforcement officer and was sentenced to ten years of imprisonment and thirty years of community service. The court of appeal affirmed. Since 2012, Defendant has filed twelve previous extraordinary writ petitions pertaining to his conviction and sentence. All petitions have been frivolous, devoid of merit, or inappropriate for consideration by the Supreme Court. In the instant case, Defendant filed a habeas petition challenging his conviction and seeking immediate release and/or damages on several grounds. The Supreme Court found that the petition was a frivolous proceeding brought before the Supreme Court by a state prisoner and directed the clerk of court to reject any future pleadings or requests for relief submitted by Defendant pertaining to his criminal case unless such filings were signed by a member of the Florida Bar.
