O R D E R 
 
 
This 14th day of February 2005, it appears to the Court that: 
 
(1) 
On December 29, 2004, the Clerk of this Court 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 failing to 
comply with the Clerk’s December 10, 2004 directive to either pay the filing fee or 
file a motion to proceed in forma pauperis.  The Supreme Court docket reflects that 
the appellant received the notice to show cause on December 31, 2004. 
 
 
-2-
 
(2) 
The appellant has failed to respond to the notice to show cause within 
the required 10-day period.  Dismissal of this action is, therefore, deemed to be 
unopposed. 
 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to Supreme Court Rules 
3(b) and 29(b), that the within appeal is DISMISSED.
