ORDER 
 
It appears to the Court that, on September 5, 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 29, 2023 deadline set by the Court.  On September 18, 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 October 2, 2023.  A timely response to 
the notice to show cause was due on or before October 12, 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.
