On July 22, 2021, the Senior Court Clerk issued a notice, sent by certified mail, to Hudson to show cause why his appeal should not be dismissed for his failure to comply with Rule 42 when taking an appeal from an apparent interlocutory order. Hudson received the notice to show cause, as evidenced by the return receipt filed with the Court on July 29, 2021. A timely response to the notice to show cause was due on or before August 9, 2021.2 To date, 1 The Court previously assigned pseudonyms to the parties pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 7(d).
