General SummaryThis case is from a collection containing the full text of over 16,000 Supreme Court cases from 1793 to the present. The body of Supreme Court decisions are, effectively, the final interpretation of the Constitution. Only an amendment to the Constitution can permanently overturn an interpretation and this has happened only four times in American history.
Brown v. Williams, 522 U.S. 1 (1997)
Brown v. Williams No. 97-5370 Decided October 20, 1997 522 U.S. 1
ON MOTION FOR LEAVE TO PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS
Syllabus
Pro se petitioner seeks leave to proceed in forma pauperis so that he may file a petition for a writ of certiorari to the Sixth Circuit. Since 1994, when this Court invoked its Rule 39.8 to deny him in forma pauperis status, Brown v. Brown, 513 U.S. 1040, he has filed eight petitions, each of which has been denied without recorded dissent.
Held: petitioner’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis is denied. For the reasons discussed in Martin v. District of Columbia Court of Appeals, 506 U.S. 1, he is also barred from filing any further certiorari petitions in noncriminal matters unless he first pays the required docketing fee and submits his petition in compliance with Rule 33.1.
Motion denied.
