ORDER 
 
It appears to the Court that, on August 15, 2023, the Chief Deputy Clerk sent a 
notice of brief delinquency to the appellant because he had not filed an opening brief by 
the August 11, 2023 deadline set by the Court.  On September 26, 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 September 28, 2023.  A timely response to the notice to show cause 
was due on or before October 9, 2023.  To date, the appellant has neither responded to the 
notice to show cause nor filed an opening brief.  Dismissal of this appeal is therefore 
deemed to be unopposed. 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED, under Supreme Court Rules 3(b)(2) and 
29(b), that this appeal be DISMISSED.
