IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE

ERIC BRANCH, § § No. 530, 2014 Defendant Below, § Appellant, § § v. § Court Below—Superior Court § of the State of Delaware, STATE OF DELAWARE, § in and for New Castle County § Cr. ID 0904024547A Plaintiff Below, § 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
