ORDER 
 
On December 18, 2023 and January 9, 2024, the Chief Deputy Clerk issued a 
notice directing the appellant to show cause why this appeal should not be dismissed 
for his failure to file an opening brief and appendix by the filing deadline of 
November 30, 2023.  Postal records show that the notice to show cause was delivered 
by January 18, 2024.  A timely response to the notice to show cause was due by 
January 29, 2024.  To date, the appellant has not filed an opening brief or responded 
to the notice to show cause.   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 is DISMISSED.
