                                   ORDER

       The Court issued a briefing schedule in this appeal on April 28, 2022; the

appellant’s opening brief was due May 31, 2022. On June 7, 2022, the Senior Court

Clerk sent a brief delinquency letter to the appellant. On June 21, 2022, the Senior

Court Clerk issued a notice, sent by certified mail, directing the appellant to show

cause why this appeal should not be dismissed for her failure to file an opening brief

and appendix. Postal records confirm that the notice to show cause was delivered

on June 23, 2022. A timely response to the notice to show cause was due on or

before July 5, 2022. The appellant has not responded to the notice to show cause,

nor has she filed an opening brief. Dismissal of the 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 is DISMISSED.

                                     BY THE COURT:

                                     /s/ Gary F. Traynor
