               ORDER OF DISMISSAL FOR FAIL URE TO PROSECUTE

        By letter dated 6 June 2017, appellant filed a notice of appeal with the Board
which was docketed on 13 June 2017. When the Board did not receive a complaint
pursuant to Board Rule 6(a), it issued an Order, dated 20 July 2017, directing appellant to
file a complaint within 21 days of the date of the Order, or immediately advise the Board
how much more time was needed and why. Appellant requested an extension of time in
which to file its complaint which was granted by the Board on 5 September 2017. The
complaint was due by 20 September 2017. The Board received no filing by that date.

       By Order dated 28 September 2017, the Board directed appellant to either file a
complaint or show cause why the appeal should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute
within 21 days of the date of the Order. Appellant received the Show Cause Order on
2 October 2017. The Board has received no response from appellant.

        Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed with prejudice under Board Rule 17 for
failure to prosecute.
