JUDGE CLAMPS DOWN ON FLORIDA MAN FOR FILING TOO MANY LAWSUITS

AP 25-OCT-97

MIAMI (AP) Enough is enough. Chief U.S. District Judge Edward Davis said he is tired of reading "rambling, incomprehensible diatribes" directed at everyone from Elizabeth Dole to William Rehnquist.

So Davis has ordered Robert Parker of Deerfield Beach to get his written permission before filing any more lawsuits. Parker has filed at least 85 federal suits in 10 years.

In dismissing the latest batch of 11 suits, Davis said Parker has argued that "three presidents, the chief justice of the Supreme Court, the CIA, the FBI, the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, every judge and magistrate in this district, as well as numerous executives of the American Red Cross and related entities engaged in a massive civil and criminal conspiracy to deprive Parker of employment, his marriage, access to the federal courts and, indeed, his very life."

Parker's displeasure apparently stems from his five-year employment with the Red Cross until 1972, and an executive's alleged remark to his next employer that he was fired for stealing.

"The bottom line is that this district has expended enough of its scarce resources administering the same complaint from Parker," Davis wrote Thursday.

Parker's home telephone number is not listed and he could not be reached for comment.
