State ex rel. Henderson v. Sweeney
Annotate this CaseAppellant filed two complaints for writs of prohibition and a complaint for a writ of procedendo. Appellant sought the writs to restrain a judge and juvenile court from proceeding in litigation regarding contempt charges in an action pending in the juvenile court, to compel two judges and the juvenile court to rule on various motions in the juvenile proceeding, and to prohibit a judge from exercising jurisdiction in a vexatious-litigator action. The court of appeals dismissed the complaints on the basis that Henderson continued to litigate the cases after he had been declared a vexatious litigator. The Supreme Court affirmed the judgments in all three cases because Appellant had been declared a vexatious litigator and failed to fulfill the statutory requirements before continuing litigation in his original actions.
