ORDER DENYING SIXTH AND
SEVENTH MOTIONS FOR
RELIEF FROM JUDGMENT AND
PRESCREENING ORDER
Re: Dkt. Nos. 114, 115

Petitioner Leon Meyers, a state prisoner, filed a pro se petition for a writ of habeas corpus

9

that was denied on the merits on March 31, 2015. Petitioner previously filed five motions for

11

United States District Court
Northern District of California

10

relief from a judgment pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) that the Court denied. Docket Nos. 94,

12

96, 103, 105, 112. Petitioner has now filed a sixth and seventh motion pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P.

13

60(b). The motions (Docket Nos. 114, 115) are denied for the same reasons as the prior motions.

14

The Court notes that petitioner’s appeal to the Ninth Circuit of the habeas order was denied.

15

Petitioner also appealed one of the denials of a motion for relief from a judgment which was also

16

denied by the Ninth Circuit.
In light of petitioner’s multiple abusive filings, no further filings relating to the habeas

17
18

order will be accepted unless pre-screened and pre-approved by the Court. Petitioner is advised

19

that proposed filings which simply repeat the previously rejected challenges to the order will be

20

summarily denied filing permission.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
