Here's my solution:
Everyone, whether they are prisoners or the general public, should be allowed 3 frivolous lawsuits in their life. After the 3rd case which is determined to be clearly frivolous and a burden on the courts, you aren't allowed to file any more lawsuits the remainder of your life.
There are already laws on the books that allow for barring lawsuits from what are called vexious litigants. In California if you abuse the process with an endless stream of lawsuits and are declared a vexious litigant, you can no longer file suit without prior permission from a judge.
