ORDER 
 
It appears to the Court that, on May 3, 2023, the Chief Deputy Clerk sent a notice 
of brief delinquency to the appellant because he had not filed an opening brief by the May 
2, 2023 deadline set by the Court.  On May 11, 2023, the Chief Deputy Clerk issued a 
notice, sent by certified mail, directing the appellant to show cause why this appeal should 
not be dismissed for his failure to file an opening brief.  The appellant received the notice 
on May 16, 2023.  A timely response to the notice to show cause was due by May 30, 2023.  
To date, the appellant has not filed an opening brief or responded to the notice to show 
cause.  Dismissal of this action is therefore deemed to be unopposed. 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED, under Supreme Court Rules 3(b)(2) and 
29(b), that this appeal is DISMISSED.
