Connerat v. Browning, 999 So. 2d 644 (Table) 2008 WL 5378138 (Fla.2008) (dismissing petition for extraordinary emergency writ of mandamus challenging Obamas eligibility);
Note: We previously counted this case as a birther case. We did so based on some secondary reporting on the case, which was the only information available at the time because the docket was sealed and not available to the public. However, it has since become available and our review indicates that although the plaintiffs clearly sought to prevent Obama from serving as President, they did not base their opposition on any birther theories; rather, the apparent basis was the fact that Obama is not white. Therefore, we have removed this case from the count, while keeping the RECAP/related information available for archival purposes.

Note: This case was apparently filed as an original action in the Supreme Court in June 2009. However, it was never docketed. It was subsequently included as an exhibit in document #69, filed in Barnett v. Obama (C.D. Cal.) on September 21, 2009. We treat this case in the same manner as the various grand jury presentments (see supra, Note 5) - i.e., given that it was never officially docketed and considered by the court, it does not count as a case for purposes of the Scorecard. However, we include it here, with a link to the filing for reference purposes.

Note: According to some websites, Fitzpatrick has filed a few complaints against Obama, including, most recently, a criminal complaint reportedly filed with the Clerk of Court, Catawba County, NC, File #09R81 (see American Grand Jury (AGJ) Article); and an alleged grand jury presentment in Tennessee (see AGJ Article). To date, no official record (docket, etc.) has been located; and court personnel could not confirm the accuracy of these reports. Upon confirmation of the NC state court case, either or both of these cases, , , , we will update the chart accordingly to note such cases as pending and/or resolved. Jul 1, 2010 Update: While we did not find any official docket of this case, the subsequent prosecution of Fitzpatrick makes clear that he did, in fact, attempt to file a criminal complaint against Obama, but was rejected. See, e.g., Bill Poovey/AP, Cases :involving attempted citizens arrest delayed, as published online by the Washington Examiner (June 29, 2010).

Plaintiffs have failed once again and not because there are dishonest and corrupt judges across the country, as Plaintiffs' counsel repeated during the hearing on the request for a temporary restraining order. Instead, Plaintiffs have failed in the Courts, and will undoubtedly continue to fail in the Courts, because they ask the Court to supplant the legislative branch and disregard the fundamental doctrine of separation of powers.); Grinols v.

Judd has filed more than 50 election cases and, in August 2012, filed motions for relief from prior judgments in which he all eged that Obama is not a natural born citizen and sought to remove Obama from 2012 election ballot. We did not include all these cases in the scorecard because the vast majority of them were summarily dismissed given that Judd has been declared a vexatious litigant. For a complete listing of known Judd cases, however, see below.

Note: Kamal Kama Roy has filed well over a dozen lawsuits, many naming Obama. Although the pleadings are utterly unintelligible, at least a few of his pleadings have included references to various birther claims. The courts always dismiss these cases, typically sua sponte, a frivolous and unintelligible, shortly after he files them.

Note: On November 24, 2009, the Trial Court declined to enter a protective order requested by Strunk in this case. In 2010 and 2011, the docket reflects multiple orders denying Strunk motions. Defendants have never appeared in the case. Thus, while the docket does not indicate that the case is closed, all motions have been ruled upon and Strunks request for relief has been denied.

Additional Judd Cases
Case Citation / Status

Court Decision on Motion It is ORDERED that the motion for relief from judgment, etc. (doc. no. 19) is denied.
Judd v. Secy of State of Alabama, No 2:11-cv-00437 (M.D. Ala. Aug 10, 2012 order) (denying motion for relief from judgment seeking, among other things, removal of Obama from 2012 general election ballot on natural born citizen grounds ); Judd v. Secy of State of Alabama, No. 2:11-cv-00333 (M.D. Ala.)
No motion re: Obama/NBC issue currently on file. [Noting that Judd had previously been declared vexatious litigant] In this circumstance, plaintiffs complaint was dismissed without prejudice on procedural grounds. His complaint would not have been dismissed if he had shown that he was in imminent danger of serious physical injury. He did not do so at that time and does not do so now. Instead, plaintiff raises arguments which may have been appropriate had his complaint been dismissed on the merits. Thus, he has failed to demonstrate a justification for relief so compelling that the district court was required to grant [the] motion. Id. at 806. Accordingly, his motion is DENIED. The court dismissed this pro se 1983 action without prejudice pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1915(g) on June 6, 2011. (Doc. The Eleventh Circuit dismissed the plaintiffs appeal on October 18, 2011. (Doc. 10). The Court DENIES the motion. (Doc. 13). Plaintiff Judd did not pay the filing fee required to proceed with a civil action in federal court. His application for leave to proceed without prepayment of fees was denied. Judd appealed that decision, but his appeal was dismissed as frivolous. This case is closed. The motions filed by Judd at dockets 14, 15, and 16 are therefore DENIED. The court will not entertain any further motions, letters or other documents from Judd. If Judd sends further papers relating to this case, the Clerk of Court shall not file them, but instead shall mail them back to Judd. Plaintiff Keith Russell Judd, who is confined in the Federal Correctional InstitutionTexarkana in Texarkana, Texas, filed a pro se civil rights Complaint pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 1983 and Application to Proceed In Forma Pauperis. On July 13, 2011, the Court dismissed this action under the three strikes provision of 28 U.S.C. 1915(g). Plaintiff filed a Notice of Appeal. On October 24, 2011, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued a mandate dismissing the appeal and stating because the appeal is so insubstantial as to not warrant further review, it shall not be permitted to proceed. On August 2, 2012, Plaintiff filed a Motion for Relief from Judgment (Doc. 15). The Court has reviewed the pleadings, its orders, and the order of the Ninth Circuit and finds no reason to reconsider dismissal of this action. IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiffs August 2, 2012 Motion for Relief from Judgment (Doc. 15) is denied. This case must remain closed.

Court Decision on Motion Pending is Plaintiffs pro se Motion for Relief from Judgment and Motion to Amend for Court Order to Register all Convicted and Incarcerated Felons to Vote in all Federal Elections and for Order to Remove Barack Obama from States 2012 Presidential Primary (Doc. No. 19). The Motion is DENIED. TEXT ONLY ORDER denying 23 Motion for Leave to File, as the proposed motion does not allege that movant is in imminent danger of serious physical injury, is procedurally improper, and substantively without merit. Signed by Honorable P. K. Holmes, III on August 31, 2012. (jlg) (Entered: 08/31/2012) No action taken on Aug. motion Petitioner now moves for relief from judgment under the Twenty-Fourth Amendment, to amend the court order to register all convicted and incarcerated felons, and for an order to remove Barack Obama from the States 2012 presidential primary election ballot/caucus and award all delegated to himself, a Democratic presidential candidate. *** The Court finds nothing in Plaintiffs allegations in his motion to reconsider that merits reconsideration. Plaintiffs arguments regarding a convicted felons right to vote were previously addressed in the order of dismissal. Plaintiffs request that the Court order that he be awarded presidential delegates is not the subject of this action and do not justify reconsideration of the Courts Order of Dismissal. Similarly, President Obamas citizenship status is not at issue in this case. "...The Court has reviewed its previous order, the Ninth Circuits order, Plaintiffs present motion, and the other filings in this case. (Doc. Nos. 3, 6 & 9.) The Court concludes that Plaintiff has failed to demonstrate that relief from judgment is warranted. For example, Plaintiff fails to articulate any mistake made by this Court, Plaintiff fails to provide any newly discovered evidence, Plaintiff fails to identify any fraud by an opposing party, and Plaintiff fails to provide any other reason that justifies relief. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b). Plaintiffs motion does not address[] the Courts previous basis for dismissing this action. Furthermore, Plaintiff is not entitled to proceed in this matter without payment of the filing fee. See 28 U.S.C. 1915(g). ..." Plaintiffs motion for relief from judgment (ECF No. 17) is DENIED because Plaintiff fails to present any argument that addresses the basis for the order dismissing this action.

By Order dated June 1, 2011, this case was transferred to [N.D. Ga.]. As this case is closed in this court, Plaintiff's motion(s) are dismissed.
16.
Plaintiffs Motion for Reconsideration is untimely and inappropriate. The Court entered its order on the Magistrate Judges Final R&R more than a year before Plaintiff filed his Motion for Reconsideration. Plaintiff does not present any coherent explanation or legal basis for reconsideration based on the existence of newly discovered evidence, an intervening development or change in controlling law, or a need to correct a clear error of law or fact. Justice does not here require granting Plaintiff relief from the Courts Order, and Plaintiffs Motion for Reconsideration is denied.

Court Decision on Motion Docket Entry: This is a text only entry; no document issued. ORDER denying as patently frivolous 18 Motion for Relief from Judgment or Order Under Twenty Fourth Amendment, etc. On June 16, 2011, this Court denied Plaintiff motion to proceed in forma pauperis and dismissed his case without prejudice. Should Plaintiff wish to proceed on his claims, he must submit a new complaint, together with the required filing fee. Ordered by Judge C. Ashley Royal on 9/25/2012. (ssh) (Entered: 09/25/2012 order) No motion re: Obama/NBC issue currently on file. Plaintiff, a Texas inmate, has accumulated three strikes, and was ordered to pay the filing fee if he wished to proceed with his suit. (Dkt. 12.) Plaintiff failed to pay the filing fee, and his case was dismissed. (Dkt. 15, 16.) Plaintiff has filed a Motion for Relief from Judgment. (Dkt. 19.) While Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 60 outlines several bases for relief from judgment, Plaintiffs Motion fails to set forth any factual basis that would support relief from judgment in this instance. Accordingly, Plaintiffs Motion for Relief from Judgment (Dkt. 19) is DENIED. No case found No case found This matter is before the court on the plaintiffs motion for relief from judgment (docket no. 19). The plaintiff filed such motion on August 1, 2012. The court dismissed this case over a year ago. Moreover, given the fact that the plaintiff never properly commenced a civil action, there is no reason to address the plaintiffs reasserted claims; the fact that the plaintiff is not entitled to the advantages of proceeding in forma pauperis has not changed. Accordingly, the plaintiffs motion for relief from judgment (docket no. 19) is denied. Plaintiff is an inmate of the Federal Correctional Institution in Texarkana, Texas. He brought this action under 42 U.S.C. 1983, requesting injunctive relief to have his name added to the 2012 Presidential Primary Election Ballot as a Democratic Candidate for President of the United States of America. The Court determined Plaintiff had three or more civil actions or appeals dismissed as frivolous, and as such, was barred from bringing a civil action without prepayment of fees unless the prisoner is under imminent danger of serious physical injury. 28 U.S.C. 1915(g). Plaintiff did not show he was in imminent danger of serious physical injury, and the case was dismissed. His appeal was dismissed for failure to prosecute. . . . Plaintiff now moves for relief from judgment, requesting the restoration of the right to vote for felons (released or incarcerated) and to remove President Barack Obama from the 2012 Presidential ballot. Under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b), the court may relieve a party from a final judgment for mistake, inadvertence, newly discovered evidence, fraud, void judgment, satisfaction of judgment, or any other reason that justifies relief. Plaintiff does not specify the reason for seeking relief from judgment, and neither is the court able to identify any meritorious basis for granting relief from judgment.

This action was dismissed and all relief was denied by order entered July 15, 2011, on account of plaintiffs failure to pay the filing fee. Mr. Judd is a three-strikes litigant and made no showing of imminent danger. Plaintiff filed a Notice of Appeal, and on October 4, 2011, his appeal was dismissed. This matter is currently before the court upon another post-judgment motion filed by plaintiff, which generally re-argues his claims and argues new claims. He has also filed a second notice of appeal purportedly to the Supreme Court with respect to the pending post-judgment motion. The court finds that the post-judgment motion contains no valid ground for relief from judgment or for any of the other orders sought therein. * * *

Plaintiff has now filed a motion for relief from judgment under the 24th Amendment (DN 22). He does not address his failure to pay the filing fee or comply with the Orders of this Court. He simply discusses the Democratic primary and posits his theory that President Obama is not a citizen of the United States. As such, Plaintiff offers no reason that he should be entitled to relief from the prior judgment of this Court "It is ordered that Petitioner's Motion for Relief from Judgment is denied as petitioner has presented no legal grounds for relief."

Court Decision on Motion The August 3, 2012 Motion [Doc. No. 32] is denied. The judgment [Doc. No. 33] from which Plaintiff purports to seek relief is a judgment dismissing this action without prejudice because Plaintiff failed to respond to the Courts Order denying his motion to proceed in forma pauperis and directing payment of the filing fee required to proceed with this action. In the current motion, Plaintiff fails to address any of the bases for the Order and the subsequent Judgment. Instead, he asserts arguments having nothing to do with the requirements for in forma pauperis status or the findings set out in the July 30, 2012 Order and subsequent Judgment. The August 23, 2012 Motion [Doc. No. 38] is stricken, as it is merely a duplicate of the August 3, 2012 Motion. On August 8, 2012, or more than ten (10) months after dismissal of the appeal, Plaintiff filed a motion for relief from judgment or order under Twenty Fourth Amendment (Dkt. # 16). He requests the Court to order, inter alia, that all convicted and incarcerated felons be registered to vote, that President Barack Obama be removed from the 2012 presidential ballot, and that all delegates be award to Plaintiff. Plaintiff never paid the $350 filing fee for this action. This Court has determined, on numerous occasions, that Plaintiff is subject to the three-strikes rule of 28 U.S.C. 1915(g). He has not provided any relevant legal authority to support a claim that the statute is unconstitutional or does not apply to him. For all the reasons discussed in prior Orders (Dkt. #s 3 and 7), the Court finds that Plaintiffs arguments asserted in his motion for relief from judgment under the Twenty Fourth Amendment are frivolous and without merit. His motion shall be denied. Docket Entry: MINUTE ORDER by Judge Ronald A. White denying 17 Motion for Relief (dma, Deputy Clerk) (Entered: 08/07/2012)

Court Decision on Motion Plaintiff initiated this suit on May 25, 2011, seeking an injunction forcing his placement on Oregon's 2012 presidential primary election ballot and a declaration that convicted felons have a right to vote in the primary. Plaintiff also sought in forma pauperis (IFP) status which the court denied without prejudice due to a failure to provide the correct form. After the court provided plaintiff with the correct form, plaintiff refused to complete the application and the court dismissed the case on July 15, 2011. On September 16, 2011, plaintiff appealed. On October 18, 2011, the Ninth Circuit found the appeal "so insubstantial as to not warrant further review." On October 20, 2011, plaintiff sought leave to appeal IFP. The court denied the motion in light of the previous orders in the case. Plaintiff now seeks relief from the judgment and an order to register all convicted/incarcerated felons to vote in all 2012 elections and to remove Barack Obama from Oregon's presidential ballot. To date, plaintiff has not paid a filing fee or obtained IFP status. However, in anticipation of a denial of the motion, plaintiff has already filed a notice of appeal to the Supreme Court. To the extent this court still has jurisdiction to rule on the motion, the motion is denied.

Court Decision on Motion Plaintiff Keith Russell Judd is an inmate at the Federal Correctional Institute in Texarkana, Texas. After the court denied the plaintiffs motion to proceed in forma pauperis under 28 U.S.C. 1915(g), and the plaintiff failed to submit the $350 filing fee, this matter was dismissed without prejudice for failure to prosecute. The Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals dismissed the plaintiffs appeal for want of prosecution on January 20, 2012. Now before the court is a motion for relief from judgment (ECF No. 25). The plaintiff does not specify under which rule of civil procedure the motion was filed, but the court construes the motion as filed pursuant to Rule 60(b). *** The present motion does not present any basis for reconsideration of the judgment previously entered against the plaintiff, and certainly does not address any of the grounds recognized by Rule 60 as providing a legitimate reason for relief from judgment. The plaintiffs motion is utterly frivolous, and the court declines to consider it. The motion (ECF No. 25) is hereby DENIED. Further, the plaintiff is given notice that this case is CLOSED and he SHALL NOT submit any more filings in this action. The Clerk of Court is is DIRECTED not to accept any additional filings in this action.

Even after satisfaction of all sanction orders, Judd may not file any civil action in a district court of this circuit, or any pleading or notice of appeal with this court, without first obtaining leave of the court in which he seeks to file such action, pleading, or notice. When seeking leave of court, Judd must certify that the claim he wishes to present is a new one that has never before either been raised and disposed of on the merits or remains pending in any federal court. Upon failure thus to certify or upon false certification, Judd may be sanctioned and punished accordingly.)

KEITH JUDD 2012 FILINGS RAISING BIRTHER ISSUE AFTER JUDGMENT ENTERED
Case Citation / Status
45.
Court Decision on Motion The court summarily dismissed this civil action without prejudice because plaintiff, a prisoner, has three strikes against him under U.S.C. 1915(g) and did not pay the $350.00 filing fee or establish an exception to the three strikes provision. Plaintiffs appeal of that dismissal has also been dismissed. Plaintiff has since brought two frivolous motions, seeking reconsideration of his claims in this action. Because the motions are frivolous and offer no ground upon which this court finds relief to be warranted, it is now ORDERED that plaintiffs motions (ECF Nos. 17 & 18) are DENIED. (Feb. 7, 2013 Order) No action taken on Aug. motion On January 18, 2012, the Court entered an Order and Judgment adopting the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge James E. Seibert, and dismissing without prejudice the pro se petitioner Keith Russell Judds (Judd) 42 U.S.C. 1983 complaint (dkt. no. 14). More than six months later, on August 2, 2012, Judd filed the pending motion seeking, inter alia, relief from judgment. (Dkt. No. 18). Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b) provides that a court may, upon motion or upon such terms as are just, relieve a party from a final judgment, order, or proceeding *** Here, Judd has failed to specify what provision of Rule 60(b), if any, he relies upon for his motion. Instead, he simply reiterates the same frivolous arguments the Court rejected over six months ago. Accordingly, the Court DENIES his motion (dkt. no. 18).

Judd v. Secretary of State of West Virginia et al, No. 2:2011-cv-00369 (S.D. W.Va. motion filed Aug. 2, 2012);
Plaintiff does not allege any basis for relief under 60(b)s subparts. Though his renewed argument that the Twenty-Fourth Amendment trumps the PLRAs application in this case could perhaps be interpreted as alleging legal error in the Courts previous Memorandum Opinion, legal error is not a ground for relief under Rule 60(b). See Russell v. Delco Remy Div. of Gen. Motors Corp., 51 F.3d 746, 749 (7th Cir. 1995). Further, this argument is as utterly meritless now as it was when the Court issued its earlier Memorandum Opinion. Having previously held that Plaintiff cannot proceed in this action without paying the requisite filing fee, the Court will not revisit its September 6, 2011 Memorandum Opinion or its accompanying Judgment Order.

No case found The motion by Plaintiff is, on it's face, patently frivolous. The motion by Plaintiff is thus not only utterly frivolous, it is, after the November 6, 2012, general election, clearly moot.
