ACR X FLC NON COMPLIANCE WITH ATC CLRNC. PLTDEV.

Narrative

ACR X; A SEBOUND JET HAD TFC WITH ACR Y A NEBOUND JET AT FL330. I GAVE AN ATC CLRNC TO ACR X TO TURN R 25 DEG FOR TFC. HE CAME BACK WITH A REPLY OF; 'I'M NOT SURE I WANT TO DO THAT CTR; I'VE GOT TFC AT 1 O'CLOCK AND 20 MI AND A R TURN WILL PUT ME INTO HIM.' I TOLD HIM TO TURN 30 DEG R AND EXPEDITE THE TURN AS CONFLICT ALERT WAS ACTIVATED. I WENT ON TO EXPLAIN TO HIM THAT THE PLAN WAS TO TAKE HIM BEHIND THE TFC. ADDITIONAL FL330 TFC WAS 20 MI INTRAIL OF THE FIRST JET I HAD TURNED HIM BEHIND. SO I NEEDED TO TURN HIM BACK ON COURSE IN A TIMELY MANNER. I ASKED FOR HIS HDG AND TURNED HIM 20 DEG BACK TO THE L. HE ONCE AGAIN QUESTIONED MY CLRNC. HE THOUGHT I WAS TURNING HIM BACK TOO SOON AND WAS GOING TO HIT THE TFC I TURNED HIM FOR IN THE FIRST PLACE. I AGAIN EXPLAINED THE SITUATION AND CLRED HIM DIRECT ICT. I'M THANKFUL I'VE NEVER HAD TO DEAL WITH 2 TCASII EQUIPPED ACFT WHO BOTH HAD TFC IN DIFFERENT PARTS OF MY SECTOR. OR WHAT ABOUT 3 OR 4? THE WORKLOAD WAS INDEED INCREASED BY JUST THE ONE.
