ORDER

On September 23, 2025, the Court received from the appellant a motion and

affidavit to proceed in forma pauperis. In September and October, the Clerk’s office

sent the appellant letters directing him to file a notice of appeal. After he failed to

do so by the deadlines provided, the Chief Deputy Clerk issued a notice, sent by

certified mail, directing the appellant to show cause why this appeal should not be

dismissed because the appellant had not filed a notice of appeal as directed in the

earlier correspondence. The appellant received the notice by November 10, 2025.

The appellant having failed to respond to the notice to show cause within the

required ten-day period or to file a notice of appeal, dismissal of this action is

deemed 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/ Karen L. Valihura
Justice
