Hooker denied right to file lawsuit

This is about a guy who's suing the local government officials so much that the government is effectively making it illegal for him to sue them. He sounds like what you might call "a character". It could just be that he's a full-time thorn in their side, and lacks the proper PR.

Hooker denied right to file lawsuit

Local legal and political personality John Jay Hooker will not be allowed to file suit against Metro incumbent mayoral candidate Bill Purcell, Davidson County Circuit Court Special Master Mary Ashley “Marsh” Nichols ordered Wednesday.

Hooker attempted to file the suit last week, charging the mayor had violated state and federal provisions against providing food and drink to prospective voters. Hooker’s suit attempts to address what he says is an election process that “is corrupt at the core and deprives voters of a ‘free and equal’ … election.” Purcell has declined comment.

Hooker’s recent filing came despite an order issued against him in June by Davidson County Sixth Circuit Judge Thomas Brothers saying Hooker could not file suits in Davidson County without Special Master approval.
