This 22nd day of November 2011, it appears to the Court that, on 
November 4, 2011, the Clerk of the 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 his appeal by not filing his 
opening brief and appendix.  The appellant has failed to respond to the 
notice to show cause within the required 10-day period.  Therefore, 
dismissal of this action is deemed to be unopposed. 
 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to Supreme Court 
Rules 3(b) 29(b), that this appeal is DISMISSED.
