This  5th  day of April 2004, it appears to the Court that: 
 
(1) 
On February 12, 2004, the Clerk issued a notice to show cause why 
this appeal should not be dismissed, pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 29(b), for the 
appellant’s failure to diligently prosecute the appeal by not filing his opening brief 
and appendix.  The notice to show cause stated that, unless the appellant responded 
within 10 days of receipt, dismissal of the appeal would be deemed to be 
unopposed.1 
 
(2) 
The notice to show cause was returned by the post office on March 4, 
2004, marked “unclaimed.”  On the same date, the Clerk re-mailed the notice to 
show cause to the appellant’s last-known address via first class mail and it was not 
returned. 
                                                 
1 Supr. Ct. R. 3(b) and 29(b). 
 
 
-2-
 
(3) 
The appellant has failed to respond to the notice to show cause within 
the required 10-day period.  Therefore, dismissal of this action is deemed to be 
unopposed. 
 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to Supreme Court Rules 
3(b) and 29(b), that the within appeal is DISMISSED.
