RONALD JERMAINE JACKSON,

Petitioner,

v. Case No. 25-CV-01816-SPM

THOMAS LILLARD,

Respondent.

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

McGLYNN, District Judge: This matter comes before the Court on Petitioner Ronald Jermaine Jackson’s Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 filed September 22, 2025 (Doc. 1). Jackson’s claims have been repeatedly rejected as frivolous by nearly every judge in this District. See Jackson v. Lillard, No. 25-cv-01127-NJR (S.D. Ill. July 7, 2025); Jackson v. Lillard, No. 24-cv-02687-NJR (S.D. Ill. Apr. 29, 2025); Jackson v. Lillard, 25-cv-00542-DWD (S.D. Ill. Apr. 29, 2025); Jackson v. Lillard, No. 24-cv-01690-NJR (S.D. Ill. Oct. 24, 2024); Jackson v. Lillard, No. 24-cv-01539-JPG (S.D. Ill. June 20, 2024); Jackson v. Lillard, No. 24-cv-1225-SMY (S.D. Ill. May 6, 2024). Chief Judge Nancy J. Rosenstengel warned Jackson that, as a sanction, future repetitive habeas corpus petitions will be deemed rejected, without the need for judicial action, 30 days after the petition is filed unless the court orders otherwise. See Jackson v. Lillard, No. 24-cv-02687-NJR, 2025 WL 1234150, at *3 (S.D. Ill. Apr. 29, 2025) (citing Alexander v. United States, 121 F.3d 312, 315 (7th Cir. 1997)). The Court has reviewed Jackson’s instant Petition and has determined that it raises no new arguments. Thus, consistent with Chief Judge Rosenstengel’s prior admonition, Jackson’s Petition (Doc. 1) is DISMISSED with prejudice. The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to close this case on the Court’s docket.

IT IS SO ORDERED. DATED: September 23, 2025
