ORDER
On May 11, 2021, the Senior Court Clerk issued a notice, sent by certified
mail, directing the appellant, Christopher Desmond, to show cause why his appeal
should not be dismissed for his failure to pay the Supreme Court filing fee or filing
a motion to proceed in forma pauperis. Postal records show that Desmond received
the notice to show cause on May 17, 2021. A timely response to the notice to show
cause was due on or before May 27, 2021. To date, Desmond has not paid the
Supreme Court filing fee, filed a motion to proceed in forma pauperis, or responded
to the notice to show cause. Dismissal of this action is therefore deemed to be
unopposed.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, under Supreme Court
Rules 3(b)(2) and 29(b), that the appeal is DISMISSED.
BY THE COURT:
/s/ Collins J. Seitz, Jr.
Chief Justice
