Foley v. State
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court dismissed Petitioner's pro se petition for writ of mandamus and sanctioned him for his repeated misuse of the judicial system's resources, holding that Petitioner's petition was frivolous.
Petitioner was convicted of robbery with a weapon and trafficking in stolen property and sentenced to life in prison as a Prison Releasee Reoffender (PRR). The Third District Court of Appeal reversed Petitioner's PRR sentence and remanded the case with instructions to impose a "guideline sentence." Since then, Petitioner filed various filings related to his convictions and sentences, including this pro se mandamus petition. The Supreme Court dismissed the mandamus petition and directed the Clerk of Court to reject any future pleadings or other requests for relief submitted by Petitioner unless such filings are signed by a member in good standing of The Florida Bar, holding that Petitioner's petition was frivolous and that Petitioner demonstrated a pattern of vexatious filing of meritless pro se requests for relief.
