The referenced case was docketed in this court on December 10, 2007.

Please use the appellate docket number noted above when making inquiries. Attorneys

who wish to participate in this appeal must be properly admitted either to the bar of this

court or for this particular proceeding pursuant to 11th Cir. R. 46-1, et seq. An attorney not yet

properly admitted must file an appropriate application for admission within fourteen (14)

days from this date. In addition, all attorneys (except court appointed-counsel) who wish

to participate in this appeal must complete and return an appearance form within (14) days

from this date. Application and appearance forms are available on the Internet at

www.cal 1 .uscourts.gov. The clerk may not accept motions or other filings from an

attorney until that attorney files an appearance form. 11th Cir. R. 46-5.

11th Cir. R. 33-1 (a)( 1) requires appellant to file "with the clerk of the court of appeals,

with service on all other parties, an original and one copy of a completed Civil Appeal

Statement within 10 days after filing the notice of appeal in the district court." Civil

Appeal Statement forms are available on the Internet at www.cal 1 .uscourts.gov, and as

provided by 11th Cir. R. 33-l(a)(4).

We have not yet received the Certificate of Interested Persons and Corporate Disclosure Statement

(CIP) required by FRAP 26.1 and the accompanying circuit rules. The rules provide that the

certificate must be filed by every appellant [and cross-appellant] with this court within 10 days

after the appeal is docketed in this court, or along with the filing in this court by any party of

any motion, petition, or pleading, whichever occurs first. The rules further provide that on

the same day a paper certificate is served, the party filing it must also complete the court's

web-based certificate at the "Electronic Filing" link of the court's website, www.cal 1 .uscourts.gov,

by electronically providing the information required for that form. Only the ticker symbols for

publicly traded corporations that are listed on the paper CIP must be entered in the web-based

system. If your CIP does not include any publicly traded corporations, you are required to go to

the website and simply click the button indicating that you have no publicly traded corporations

to report. Pro se parties are not required or authorized to complete the web-based certificate.

You are hereby notified that the clerk is not authorized to submit to the court any brief (except

for the reply brief of an appellant or cross-appellant), petition, answer, motion or response that

does not contain the certificate, but may receive and retain the papers pending supplementation of

the papers with the required certificate. You are also hereby notified that failure to submit the

required certificate will result in your document(s) being returned unfiled which may ultimately

result in dismissal of your appeal.

Pursuant to Eleventh Circuit Rule 42-1(b) appellant is hereby notified that upon expiration

of fourteen (14) days from this date, this appeal will be dismissed without further notice by

the clerk unless the default(s) noted below have been corrected:
