____________ No. SC10-35 ____________ ANTONIO JOHNSON, Petitioner, vs. KATHERINE FERNANDEZ RUNDLE, etc., Respondent. ____________ No. SC10-207 ____________ ANTONIO JOHNSON, Petitioner, vs. EDWIN G. BUSS, etc., Respondent. [January 6, 2011] PER CURIAM. Antonio Johnson, an inmate in state custody, filed two pro se petitions seeking extraordinary relief from the Court, both challenging the lawfulness of Johnson's 1998 conviction for armed robbery and resulting life sentence entered by

the Circuit Court of the Eleventh Judicial Circuit, in and for Miami-Dade County, Florida, in Case No. F97-32329.1 The cases were consolidated and the petitions denied on April 22, 2010. Johnson v. Rundle, 36 So. 3d 84 (Fla. 2010) (table). The Court retained jurisdiction for purposes of sanctioning based upon Johnson's repeated filing of frivolous actions attacking his judgment in case number F9732329. Accordingly, the Court directed Johnson to show cause why he should not be barred from filing further pleadings or other papers pertaining to his 1998 judgment, unless such filings are signed by a member of The Florida Bar in good standing. We now sanction Johnson. For several years, Johnson has unsuccessfully sought relief from this Court. Undaunted, Johnson filed a petition for writ of quo warranto (Case No. SC10-35) on January 1, 2010, and a petition for writ of habeas corpus (Case No. SC10-207) on February 2, 2010. Specifically, since 2004, Johnson has initiated a total of sixteen proceedings in this Court seeking extraordinary relief pertaining to his conviction and sentence entered by the Eleventh Circuit in Case No. F97-32329. See Johnson v. Rundle, No. SC09-2150 (Fla. Feb. 10, 2010) (petition for quo warranto transferred to circuit court) (unpublished); Johnson v. McNeil, 17 So. 3d 292 (Fla. 2009) (habeas corpus petition dismissed) (table); Johnson v. State, 13 So. 3d 1056 (Fla. 2009) (mandamus petition dismissed) (table); Johnson v. McNeil, 1. We have jurisdiction. See art. V,
