Submitted: July 24, 2018
Decided: August 6, 2018
ORDER
On June 19, 2018, the appellant filed a notice of appeal from a Superior Court
order sentencing him for a violation of probation. The Chief Deputy Clerk directed
the appellant to pay the filing fee or file a motion to proceed in forma pauperis by
July 5, 2018. After the appellant failed to take either action, the Chief Deputy Clerk
issued a notice, on July 6, 2018, directing the appellant to show cause why this
appeal should not be dismissed for his failure to pay the filing fee or file a motion to
proceed in forma pauperis. The appellant received the notice to show cause by July
11, 2018, but has not responded within the required ten-day period, paid the filing
fee, or filed a motion to proceed in forma pauperis. Dismissal of this appeal is
therefore deemed to be unopposed.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, under Supreme Court
Rules 3(b)(2) and 29(b), that this appeal is DISMISSED.
BY THE COURT:
/s/ Leo E. Strine, Jr.
Chief Justice
