CIVIL ACTION NO. H-18-0408

ORDER OF DISMISSAL
Petitioner’s petition for a writ of mandamus raises the same complaints, and seeks
the same relief, as his petition in Peters v. State of Texas, C.A. No. H-17-3782 (S.D. Tex.
Dec. 12, 2017). The Court dismissed that lawsuit for want of jurisdiction. For the same
reasons, the instant lawsuit is DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION.
The Court recently imposed a $400.00 monetary sanction on petitioner for his
repetitive, frivolous filings. Peters v. State of Texas, C.A. No. H-18-0261 (S.D. Tex. Jan.
31, 2018).

Petitioner is WARNED that he will be subject to additional sanctions,

including additional monetary penalties and limitations on his ability to file lawsuits in
federal court, if he continues to abuse judicial resources by filing repetitive, frivolous
pleadings.
Signed at Houston, Texas on February 15, 2018.

United States District Judge
