This 15th day of January 2004, it appears to the Court that on December 4, 2003, 
the Assistant Clerk issued a notice to show cause why this appeal should not be dismissed 
pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 29(b) for the appellant’s failure to diligently prosecute 
the appeal by not filing his opening brief and appendix.  The appellant has failed to 
respond to the notice to show cause within the required ten-day period; therefore, 
dismissal of this action is deemed to be unopposed. 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, pursuant to Supreme Court 
Rules 3(b) and 29(b), that the within appeal is DISMISSED. 
 
BY THE COURT: 
 
/s/ Myron T. Steele 
Justice
