ORDER 
It appears to the Court that, on March 11, 2022, the Chief Deputy Clerk issued 
a notice, sent by certified mail, directing the appellant, Shawn Powell, to show cause 
why his appeal should not be dismissed for his failure to file a completed motion to 
proceed in forma pauperis.  Powell received the notice on March 17, 2022.  A timely 
response to the notice to show cause was due on or before March 28, 2022.  To date, 
Powell has not filed a completed motion to proceed in forma pauperis, paid the 
Supreme Court filing fee, or responded to the notice to show cause.2  Dismissal of 
this action is therefore deemed to be unopposed. 
 
1 The parties were previously assigned pseudonyms under Supreme Court Rule 7(d). 
2 We also note that Powell has not paid the Family Court appeal and transcript fees.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, under Supreme Court 
Rules 3(b)(2) and 29(b), that the appeal is DISMISSED.
