Decided: February 16, 2024
ORDER
On January 8, 2024, the Chief Deputy Clerk sent a notice of brief delinquency
to the appellant because he had not filed an opening brief by the January 3, 2024
deadline set by the Court. On January 22, 2024, the Chief Deputy Clerk issued a
notice, sent by certified mail, to the appellant directing him to show cause why this
appeal should not be dismissed for his failure to file an opening brief. The appellant
received the notice on January 23, 2024. A timely response to the notice was due
on or before February 2, 2024. To date, the appellant has neither responded to the
notice to show cause nor filed an opening brief. Dismissal of this appeal is therefore
deemed to be unopposed.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED, under Supreme Court Rules 3(b)(2)
and 29(b), that this appeal is DISMISSED.
BY THE COURT:
