ORDER

THIS MATTER is before the Court on the Petitioner’s Motion for
Discovery [Doc. 65].
In support of the motion, the Petitioner contends that he “has been able
to identify several sources of discovery which, if disclosed, would then
produce such information that presents a substantial question to the issue of
Petitioner’s guilt.” [Doc. 65 at 1]. Since filing his Section 2255 motion, the
Petitioner has inundated this Court with baseless filings. On October 19,
2011, this Court ordered that, in light of the Petitioner’s prolific and frivolous
filings, he “may not make further filings except that he may respond to any
further motions filed by the Respondent within the time allotted by law, he may

re-file a motion for summary judgment at the appropriate time, and he may
make such other filings for which he has been granted advanced permission
by the Court by further order.” [Doc. 55 at 5]. Notwithstanding the Court’s
Order of October 19, 2011, the Petitioner filed the pending motion without first
seeking permission from the Court. The Court will, therefore, deny the Motion
for Discovery.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that the Petitioner’s Motion for
Discovery [Doc. 65] is hereby DENIED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that in furtherance of the Court’s prior Order
of October 19, 2011, the Petitioner is hereby warned that if he attempts to file
any more documents other than those as set forth in the Court’s Order of
October 19, 2011, or without first seeking permission by Order from the Court,
the Court will return the documents to the Petitioner without further
explanation.
