O R D E R 
 
 
This 9th day of June 2004, it appears to the Court that: 
 
(1) 
On May 20, 2004, because the record did not reflect that the Family 
Court had issued its final order regarding ancillary matters in this case, 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 comply with 
Rule 42 when taking an appeal from an apparent interlocutory order.    
 
(2) 
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. 
 
 
 
 
 
-2-
 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to Supreme Court 
Rules 3(b) and 29(b), the within appeal is DISMISSED.
