Pro Se Policies
The 11th Circuit has ruled that prisoners can file anything they want in federal court as long as they pay a filing fee. This is a split with the 10th Circuit which has ruled that even non prisoners who pay filing fees cannot file in federal court if they are subject to an order prohibiting it and that non prisoners can be incarcerated for filing in federal court without permission.

Famous quotes containing the words pro and/or policies:
“It is sweet and honourable to die for ones country.
[Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori.]”
—Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (658 B.C.)
“Give a scientist a problem and he will probably provide a solution; historians and sociologists, by contrast, can offer only opinions. Ask a dozen chemists the composition of an organic compound such as methane, and within a short time all twelve will have come up with the same solution of CH4. Ask, however, a dozen economists or sociologists to provide policies to reduce unemployment or the level of crime and twelve widely differing opinions are likely to be offered.”
—Derek Gjertsen, British scientist, author. Science and Philosophy: Past and Present, ch. 3, Penguin (1989)
