O R D E R 
 
This 8th day of May 2012, it appears to the Court that, on April 20, 2012, the 
Senior Court Clerk issued a notice to the appellant to show cause why this appeal 
should not be dismissed for the Court’s lack of jurisdiction to hear an appeal 
directly from a Family Court Commissioner’s ruling.  The appellant has failed to 
respond to the notice to show cause within the required ten-day period; therefore, 
dismissal of this action is deemed to be unopposed. 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, pursuant to Supreme 
Court Rules 3(b) and 29(b), that the within appeal is DISMISSED. 
BY THE COURT: 
 
/s/ Henry duPont Ridgely 
Justice
