Insofar as either or both of these cases are arguably class actions, the district court did not err in not granting class status because its finding that Green has engaged in a pattern of abuse of the judicial system establishes that he is not a person who, under Rule 23, would "fairly and adequately represent the interest of the class."

With respect to Green's individual claims, both were properly dismissed on the grounds that many of them were repetitious and others frivolous and malicious. Green's history of abuse of the facilities of the federal courts is well documented. Green v. Carlson, 649 F.2d 285 (5th Cir. 1981); Green v. Camper, 477 F.Supp. 758 (W.D.Mo.1979); In Re: Clovis Carl Green, Jr., 598 F.2d 1126 (8th Cir. 1979); Green v. White, 616 F.2d 1054, 1055 (8th Cir. 1980); In Re: Clovis Carl Green, Jr., No. 80-1039 (D.C.Cir. 1980); Green v.
