This case has been referred to a panel of this Court pursuant to Rule 9(a), Rules of the Sixth Circuit. Upon examination of the briefs and record, this panel unanimously agrees that oral argument is not necessary. Fed. R. App. P. 34(a). The plaintiff is a prisoner at the Chillicothe Correctional Center in Ohio. On March 14, 1985, he filed a 42 U.S.C. § 1983 civil rights action against the Clerk of the Hamilton County Common Pleas Court. The complaint and supplement filed in that action alleged that the clerk failed to file, filed late or altered 53 motions, pleading or letters sent to him by the plaintiff. The 53 documents involved relate to the plaintiff's earlier conviction in Ohio for murder and aggravated assault. In his complaint, the plaintiff concluded that he had been denied access to the courts by the actions of the defendant.
