ORDER DENYING Plaintiff's Request for permission to file a complaint re 1 Docket Annotation. Signed by District Judge Robert H. Cleland. (LWag)

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION

ANNIE M. HESTER,
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No. 12-51523

COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY,
Defendant.
/
ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S REQUEST
FOR PERMISSION TO FILE COMPLAINT
On September 2, 2009, Judge Ludington barred Plaintiff from filing any further
actions against the Commissioner of Social Security in the Eastern District of Michigan
unless she receives written permission from the court. (Order, No. 08-14575, Dkt.
# 15.) Plaintiff had already filed three actions against the Commissioner, and Judge
Ludington explained that the court lacked subject matter jurisdiction over such claims.
Plaintiff sought leave to file a complaint against the Commissioner on August 17, 2012.
Chief Judge Rosen denied permission to file the complaint, finding that Plaintiff did not
provide a basis for bringing a new suit against the Commissioner that seeks to relitigate
already decided issues. (Order, No. 12-51140, Dkt. # 4.)
On November 19, 2012, Plaintiff again sought leave to file a complaint against
the Commissioner. The complaint, similar to the one Chief Judge Rosen reviewed, lists
general grievances about the rulings in her past suits against the Commissioner.
Plaintiff does not offer a sufficient reason for the court to grant her permission to file yet
another complaint against the Commissioner. Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff’s November 19, 2012 request for permission to file
suit against the Commissioner of Social Security [Dkt. # 1] is DENIED.
