ORDER

This 29th day of January 2015, it appears to the Court that:

(1) On October 28, 2014, the appellant filed an amended notice of appeal from a Superior Court order denying his motion for credit for time previously served. The appellant’s opening brief and appendix were due on or before December 12, 2014.

(2) On December 15, 2014, the Chief Deputy Clerk sent a notice of brief delinquency to the address provided by the appellant. On December 30, 2014, the Chief Deputy Clerk issued a Supreme Court Rule 29(b) notice, by certified mail, directing the appellant to show cause why this appeal should not be dismissed for his failure to file an opening brief and appendix. The notice to show cause was sent again, by first class mail, to the appellant.

(3) The appellant has failed to respond to the notices to show cause and still has not filed an opening brief. Under these circumstances, dismissal of this appeal is deemed to be unopposed.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, under Supreme Court Rules 3(b)(2) and 29(b), that the within appeal is DISMISSED.
