I doubt the federal courts have the freedom of a small town magistrate, but I've heard second hand where the local-sue-everybody-for-everything loon's cases keep getting shuffled and rescheduled until he misses a court appointment and then peremptorily dismissed.

Probably the fed courts don't have that kind of self defense mechanism; but some sua-sponte motion to dismiss by the court is not unlikely, otherwise any response by any defendant pointing out a procedural error is likely to result in a complete dismissal.

I would bet money there's a green star, or piece of yellow tape, or orange bookmark, or blue paperclip attached to this which will let any hearing judge know this is squirrel bait, and "dismiss for any possible reason".

IANAL, just pointing out that bureaucracies do develop some mechanisms to cope with idiocy on this scale. They don't work as well as might be desirable, but at some level they are likely to kick in.
