ORDER 
 
On December 2, 2022, the appellant, Thomas Santee, filed a notice of appeal 
from a Superior Court order granting the appellee a writ of ejectment and ordering 
Santee to vacate the subject property.  Under the Court’s briefing schedule, Santee’s 
opening brief and appendix were due on or before February 21, 2023.  On February 
22, 2023, the Senior Court Clerk sent a notice of brief deficiency to the address 
provided by Santee to the Court.  On March 2, 2023, the Senior Court Clerk issued 
a notice, sent by certified mail, directing Santee to show cause why this appeal 
should not be dismissed for his failure to file an opening brief and appendix.  Both 
the notice of brief deficiency and the notice to show cause have been returned to the 
Court and indicate that Santee is no longer residing at that address and left no 
forwarding address.  Santee has not reported any change of address to the Court.

Under the circumstances, dismissal of this appeal is therefore deemed to be 
unopposed. 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED, under Supreme Court Rules 3(b)(2) 
and 29(b), that the appeal be DISMISSED.
