Michael O’Grady is a plaintiff in both of these multi-plaintiff cases. But he is the subject
of a filing bar entered by the Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit. The court of appeals
has sanctioned him as follows:
Any future suits or appeals tendered in any court of this circuit
without prepayment of all applicable fees will be rejected.
Moreover, until O’Grady has paid the filing fees already
accumulated in his campaign of litigation, the clerks of every court
in this circuit will decline to accept additional papers tendered in
any suit that may be pending.
See O’Grady v. Habeck, No. 11-3881 (7th Cir. Apr. 24, 2012).
I entered orders in both cases giving O’Grady a chance to explain whether he had paid
off the filing fees he owed. O’Grady has responded, showing that he has diligently gone about
resolving the problem. He has now paid off the fees he owed in this court, and asking what his
next step is. Paying off his fees in this court is a good first step, but he has more to do. He must
pay off his fees in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin and
then write to the court of appeals, explaining that he has paid his fees and asking to have his
sanction withdrawn. I will give him a short time to accomplish this, or the cases will have to
proceed without him.
