Pray v. Forman
Annotate this CaseIn 2000, Petitioner was sentenced to life in prison for attempted first-degree murder and attempted robbery with a gun or deadly weapon. The Court of Appeal affirmed the convictions and sentences. Thereafter, Petitioner initiated a series of postconviction challenges to his convictions and sentences. The instant mandamus petition concerned the twelfth extraordinary writ petition Petitioner filed with the Supreme Court since 2010. The Supreme Court dismissed the petition and directed Petitioner to show cause why he should not be barred from filing any future pro se requests for relief. The Supreme Court then directed the Clerk of Court to reject any future pleadings or other requests for relief submitted by Petitioner that pertained to the criminal case at issue unless such filings were signed by a member in good standing of The Florida Bar. In addition, the Court found that the petition was a frivolous proceeding brought before the Supreme Court by a state prisoner.
