       Appellee.                            §

                          Submitted: December 2, 2014
                          Decided: December 4, 2014

                                   ORDER

      This 4th day of December 2014, it appears to the Court that, on November

17, 2014, the Clerk issued a notice to appellant to show cause why this appeal

should not be dismissed for his failure to diligently prosecute the appeal by not

filing his opening brief and appendix in this matter. The appellant has failed to

respond to the notice to show cause within the required ten-day period; therefore,

dismissal of this action is deemed to be unopposed.

      NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, pursuant to Supreme

Court Rules 3(b) and 29(b), that the within appeal is DISMISSED.

                                      BY THE COURT:

                                      /s/ Randy J. Holland
                                      Justice
