Edward SERVANT v. Doris DURFEE.
No. 79-88-Appeal.
Supreme Court of Rhode Island.
May 22, 1981.
David M. St. Germain, Alfred J. Gemma, Providence, for plaintiff.
Edward L. Gnys, Jr., Robert W. Smith, Providence, for defendant.

ORDER
On May 12, 1981, the plaintiff appeared before us and attempted to show cause why his appeal from the dismissal of his 1976 negligence action against an out-of-state defendant should not be summarily dismissed because the record clearly indicates that at no time has the. defendant been properly served with legal process.
The plaintiff has failed to show cause, and consequently, the plaintiff’s appeal is denied and dismissed, and the judgment appealed from is affirmed.
