ORDER 
 
It appears to the Court that, on July 5, 2019, the Chief Deputy Clerk issued a 
notice, sent by certified mail, to the appellant to show cause why his appeal should 
not be dismissed for his failure to file his opening brief and appendix.  The appellant 
failed to accept service of the notice, which was resent to him by first class mail at 
the address he provided to the Court.  The appellant has failed to respond to the 
notice to show cause within the required ten-day period.  Thus, dismissal of this 
action is deemed to be unopposed. 
 
 
                                                             
1 The Court previously assigned a pseudonym to the appellant under Supreme Court Rule 7(d). 
2 
 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, under Supreme Court 
Rules 3(b) and 29(b), that the within appeal is DISMISSED.
