ORDER
This matter is before the Court on motions by William Scott Davis Jr., prose, to reopen
these closed cases and to amend the complaints. Each of these cases has been dismissed,
judgment has been entered, and in some cases appeals have been taken and mandate has issued.
Mr. Davis' current filings, which are at best difficult to decipher, do not appear to provide the
Court with any basis upon which to reopen these matters or permit amendment of the complaint.

Moreover, a pre-filing injunction has been entered against Mr. Davis, see Davis v. Mitchell,
5:12-CV-493-F (E.D.N.C. March 3, 2014), and it would appear that Mr. Davis is attempting to
use reopening of these cases and amending the complaints as a method by which to avoid the
pre-filing injunction. 1 The Court will not sanction such action.
Accordingly, the motions to reopen case and to amend the complaints in each of the
above-captioned cases are DENIED. The Court will consider critically any future filings by Mr.
Davis in which it is apparent that he is merely seeking to avoid the pre-filing injunction.

SO ORDERED, this~ day of June, 2016.
