This 13th day of October 2014, it appears to the Court that: 
(1) 
The appellant, Charles Cobb, filed this appeal from the Superior 
Court’s order of August 4, 2014, denying his petition for a writ of habeas corpus.  
On September 25, 2014, the appellee, State of Delaware, filed a motion to dismiss 
the appeal as moot.1  
(2) 
Cobb has not responded to the State’s motion to dismiss.  Under the 
Supreme Court Rules, Cobb’s failure to respond to the motion is deemed to be his 
consent to the dismissal of the appeal.2   
                                          
 
1 See Del. Supr. Ct. R. 29(b), 30(d) (providing for dismissal of appeal upon motion by a party). 
2 See Del. Supr. Ct. R. 3(b)(2), 30(c) (providing that a party’s failure to respond to a motion to 
dismiss is deemed to be the party’s consent to dismissal). 
2 
 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED, under Supreme Court Rules 
3(b)(2), 29(b) and 30(b), (c), that the appeal is DISMISSED.
