O R D E R  
 
 
This 28th day of October 2013, it appears to the Court that, on 
October 3, 2013, the 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 his appeal by not filing his opening 
brief and appendix and by not paying the Supreme Court filing fee or filing a 
Motion to Proceed in Forma Pauperis.  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 ORDERED, pursuant to Supreme Court 
Rule 29(b), that this appeal is DISMISSED.
