ORDER AFFIRMING THE
RECOMMENDED DECISION OF THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE
No objections having been filed to the Magistrate Judge's Recommended Decision
(ECF No. 10) filed June 6, 2019, the Recommended Decision is AFFIRMED.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Motion to Reopen the Case (ECF No.
9) is hereby DENIED;
Having reviewed the entire docket, the Court concludes that this action fails to state
any claim on which relief may be granted and that his complaint and pending motions are
frivolous. As a result, the Court finds this matter is subject to dismissal under 28 U.S.C. §
1915(e)(2)(B), and there is no apparent basis for reopening this case.
Accordingly, the Court hereby provides a Cok warning to Plaintiff Justan Adams
that any further frivolous filings on this docket or with this Court will result in immediate
filing restrictions being imposed and may result in additional sanctions. See generally Cok
v. Family Court of Rhode Island, 985 F.2d 32 (1st Cir. 1993) (requiring that the Court warn
any litigant before restricting the litigant’s ability to file). By way of explanation, frivolous
filings waste judicial resources and unnecessarily delay the resolution of matters within
this Court’s jurisdiction. Based upon the Court’s review of multiple meritless actions

Justan Adams has brought before this Court, it is apparent that he has become an abusive
litigant. See D. Me Docket Nos. 1:19-cv-00030-GZS, 1:18-cv-00446-NT, and 2:17-cv00355-DBH.
