UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF MASSACHUSETTS
CIVIL ACTION NO. 15-14202-RGS
JOHN COOPER
v.
CALIFORNIA PIZZA 5TH FLOOR, et al.
ORDER
April 13, 2022
STEARNS, D.J.
By order of March 7, 2016, the court dismissed this action. Dkt #7. On
March 22, 2019, the First Circuit affirmed the order of dismissal. Dkt #17.
Since that time, plaintiff John Cooper has submitted approximately
eighteen documents that were docketed in this action. Few, if any, of these
documents contained the docket number of this case. The court cannot
discern Cooper’s purpose in submitting these documents, many of which are
somewhat illegible.
To avoid further waste of judicial resources used to process these
papers and to ensure that any claims Cooper wishes to litigate are properly
set forth, the court hereby orders that, going forward, (1) any document
Cooper submits shall not be placed on the docket of this case; (2) Cooper

shall not submit any document to this court that is illegible or otherwise
indiscernible (including a complaint), and the clerk may return said
document to Cooper without taking any other action; and (3) if Cooper seeks
judicial relief, he must do so by filing a complaint. A complaint may not
name more than one defendant unless the claims against them arise out of
the same occurrence of series of occurrences. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 20(2).
SO ORDERED.
/s/ Richard G. Stearns
