Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636, the Court has reviewed the

25

complaints in the above-listed cases, the other records on file

26

herein, and the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation.

27

Court accepts the findings and recommendations of the Magistrate

28

Judge.

Since the R. & R. was issued, Plaintiff has filed an

additional 12 civil-rights lawsuits, 11 of which are active.

See

are therefore also dismissed as frivolous.

the past three months, he has filed three separate habeas

10

petitions, all of them inappropriately claiming that he is a “crime

victim” himself, apparently based on various local law-enforcement

12

agencies’ recent arrests of him for shoplifting and other offenses.

13

Although the Court will handle those cases in a separate order or

14

orders, these habeas petitions are further evidence of his

15

vexatious nature and justify extending the Magistrate Judge’s

16

recommended vexatious-litigant order to future habeas petitions as

ACCORDINGLY, IT IS ORDERED THAT:

1. Devin Kyle Wade’s pending civil-rights complaints are

dismissed with prejudice.
2. Devin Kyle Wade is deemed a vexatious litigant, and the
