Opinion
The former husband seeks certiorari review of a trial court order that barred him from further pro se filing in this 2008 post-dissolution family law case.

Bolton v. SE Prop. Holdings, LLC, 127 So.3d 746 (Fla. 1st DCA 2013); Delgado v. Hearn, 805 So.2d 1017 (Fla. 2d DCA 2001); see also State v. Spencer, 751 So.2d 47 (Fla.1999).
On remand, the trial court shall issue an order to show cause and afford the former husband a reasonable time to respond before determining whether the sanction is appropriate.
