No. 4:12CV1812 AGF

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
Before the Court is a notice filed by petitioner in this closed mandamus
action. This matter was dismissed by the Court on November 27, 2012, as legally
frivolous, wherein petitioner sought to “correct jail time credit in accordance with
558.02.1 RSMO.” In the instant notice before the Court, petitioner has provided the
Court with copies of documents filed in other state and federal offices relating to
complaints he has made against this Court, as well as other Courts and state and
federal officers and agencies.
After a full reading of the documents attached to petitioner’s notice, it
appears that petitioner is additionally seeking an order from this Court to compel his
state appointed criminal counsel, from the Missouri State Public Defender’s Office,
to remove herself from an unidentified state appointed case and return any and all

documents to petitioner related to that case. As this Court has no jurisdiction over
petitioner’s state criminal proceedings, it will deny petitioner’s request.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that petitioner’s request for an order from this
Court mandating removal of his state criminal public defender and for a mandatory
injunction requiring appointed counsel to return to petitioner all documents relating
to his state criminal proceedings [Doc. #9] is DENIED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that this Court will not accept any additional
filings from petitioner in this closed case.
Dated this 11th day of April, 2013.
