                 documents in a civil action. Repeatedly raising the same issue constitutes
                 frivolous action, and mandamus is a civil action. Further, petitioner has
                 already been twice referred for the forfeiture of credits. 2
                             We have repeatedly informed petitioner that his continuous
                 stream of filings is an abuse of judicial resources, and we conclude that the
                 inclusion of the repetitive and unwarranted claims in the instant petition
