AFFIRMED BY UNPUBLISHED MEMORANDUM.

BURKE, J., concurs. KELLUM, J., concurs specially, with opinion.

KELLUM, Judge,

concurring specially.

I write specially to note that this action appears to be Tony Eugene Grimes’s seventh Rule 32, Ala. R.Crim. P., petition challenging his 1994 conviction for attempted murder and his resulting sentence of life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. I believe that allowing Grimes to file multiple petitions for postconviction relief in which his claims are either precluded or without merit wastes scarce judicial resources. Therefore, I would encourage the circuit court to consider adopting sanctions like those proposed in Peoples v. State, 531 So.2d 323 (Ala.Crim.App.1988), and Procup v. Strickland, 792 F.2d 1069 (11th Cir.1986), to prevent future frivolous litigation on the part of Grimes and other similarly situated inmates. See Ex parte Thompson, 38 So.3d 119 (Ala.Crim.App. 2009).
