O R D E R 
 
 
This 4th day of November 2002, it appears to the Court that: 
(1) 
The appellant has filed a notice of appeal from a decision of a 
Family Court Commissioner dated August 26, 2002.  A Commissioner’s 
order is not a final judgment for purposes of appeal to this Court.1  A party’s 
right of review from a Commissioner’s order shall be to a judge of the 
Family Court.2 
 
(2) 
The Court concludes that this appeal manifestly fails on its face 
to invoke the Court’s appellate jurisdiction.  We further conclude that giving 
                                                 
1 See Redden v. McGill, 549 A.2d 695 (Del. 1988).

notice of the defect would serve no meaningful purpose and that any 
response would be of no avail.3 
 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that the appeal is 
DISMISSED sua sponte.
