Case: 17-40510 Document: 00514261372 Page: 2 Date Filed: 12/05/2017

No. 17-40510

IT IS ORDERED that Pate’s motion to correct a clerical error and for leave to file his motion to vacate judgments is GRANTED and his remaining motions, including the motion to vacate judgments, are DENIED. Pate has appealed from the denial of an unauthorized motion. See United States v. Early , 27 F.3d 140, 141-42 (5th Cir. 1994). The appeal is without arguable merit and is therefore frivolous. See Howard v. King , 707 F.2d 215, 219-20 (5th Cir. 1983). Accordingly, we DISMISS the appeal AS FRIVOLOUS. See 5 TH C IR . R. 42.2.

Pate is CAUTIONED that future frivolous, repetitive, or otherwise abusive filings will result in the imposition of sanctions, including dismissal, monetary sanctions, and restrictions on his ability to file pleadings in this court or any court subject to this court’s jurisdiction.
