John Cirota, pro se.

Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, Charles R. Mccoy, Senior Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.

PER CURIAM.

We affirm the lower court's denial of John Cirota's motion as untimely and successive, the latest in a string of seven meritless appearances in this Court, each challenging his conviction and sentence, often on the same grounds. We caution Cirota that “additional frivolous postconviction appeals or petitions may result in an order barring him from further pro se filings in this court pertaining to his [2011] conviction.” See Carroll v. State, 192 So.3d 525 (Fla. 1st DCA 2016).

AFFIRMED.

RAY, MAKAR and OSTERHAUS, JJ., concur.
