ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

Furthermore, as it appears that Theodore Griffin has submitted multiple pro se post-conviction appeals, we order Mr. Grifñn to show good cause within thirty (30) days why this Court should not prohibit him from submitting further pro se appeals, petitions, motions or other proceedings relating to his criminal sentencing in circuit court case number 11-26509, unless such pleadings are signed by an attorney who is a duly licensed member of the Florida Bar in good standing. After this order to show cause and giving Mr. Griffin an opportunity to respond, this Court may prevent such further filings. We must balance Mr. Griffin’s pro se right to access the courts with the Court’s need to devote its finite resources to legitimate appeals, recognizing the seriousness of sanctions when the litigant is a criminal defendant. State v. Spencer, 751 So.2d 47, 48 (Fla.1999). 
      
      . A non-exhaustive list of pro se post-conviction appeals filed by the defendant include: 3D11-3097; 3D12-251; 3D12-1309; 3D12-2000; 3D12-3172; 3D13-97; 3D13-1164; 3D13-3093; 3D14-1831; 3D15-952; 3D15-1721; 3D15-2512; 3D15-2550; and 3D15-2921.
