ORDER 
 
The appellant, Robert Alley, is a defendant in a criminal action in the Superior 
Court, in which he is represented by counsel.  Alley, acting pro se, filed a document 
in this Court seeking review and reversal of a Superior Court Commissioner’s June 
5, 2023 decisions denying Alley’s motion for reduction of bail, motion for transcript, 
and motion for discovery.  The office of the Clerk of this Court deemed the document 
to be a notice of appeal and issued a notice directing Alley to show cause why the 
appeal should not be dismissed based on this Court’s lack of jurisdiction to consider 
a criminal interlocutory appeal or an appeal taken directly from a Superior Court 
Commissioner’s order.  On June 22, 2023, the Court received the certified mail 
receipt indicating that the appellant had received the notice to show cause on June 
 
2 
20, 2023.  The appellant has not responded to the notice within the required ten-day 
period.  For that reason, dismissal of the appeal is deemed to be unopposed. 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that the appeal is DISMISSED under 
Supreme Court Rules 3(b)(2) and 29(b).
