UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA FORT MYERS DIVISION Jonathan Lee Riches, Plaintiff, vs. Manuel Noriega, a/k/a, Antonia Noriega Morena, Manuel Case No. 2:07-cv-619-FtM-29DNF

Defendant. ________________________________ ORDER OF DISMISSAL This matter comes before the Court upon initial review of the file. Plaintiff, who claims to be a former CIA agent, and who is

currently incarcerated at the Federal Correctional Institution located in South Carolina, initiated this pro se action on September 24, 2007, by filing a handwritten pleading entitled "Complaint" (Doc. #1). Plaintiff did not accompany the filing of his Complaint with a Motion to Proceed In Forma Pauperis, or the requisite $350.00 filing fee. Plaintiff seeks a "restraining order against General Noriega's extradition." Plaintiff's Complaint, which comprises of a dozen of

short fanciful allegations, is patently frivolous and fails to state any colorable claim to invoke this Court's jurisdiction. The Court takes judicial notice that the Orlando Division of this Court recently: 1) restricted Plaintiff from any future filings unless he accompanies his filing with the requisite filing fee; and, 2) directed the clerk to refuse any complaint submitted by Plaintiff that was not accompanied with the requisite fee. See Case No. 6:07-cv-

1504-Orl-31KRS, Order of Court dated September 24, 2007. Further, the Court takes notice that since January 2006, Plaintiff has filed 78 other civil complaints in federal courts throughout the United States, which contain similar outlandish and delusional allegations. See http://pacer.uspci.uscourts.gov. In an effort to discourage Plaintiff from continuing with these filings, this Court will dismiss

Plaintiff's frivolous filing without reciting to or addressing any aspect of Plaintiff's Complaint. ACCORDINGLY, it is hereby ORDERED: 1. Plaintiff's Complaint (Doc. #1) is DISMISSED, with prejudice. 2. The Clerk of Court shall: (1) enter judgment accordingly;

terminate any pending motions, and close this file. DONE AND ORDERED in Fort Myers, Florida, on this October, 2007. 15th day of
