Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE

GALEN COLLINS, § § No. 355, 2015 Defendant Below, § Appellant, § § v. § Court Below—Superior Court § of the State of Delaware, STATE OF DELAWARE, § in and for New Castle County § Cr. ID 1411011358 Plaintiff Below, § Appellee. §

Submitted: August 10, 2015 Decided: August 31, 2015

ORDER

This 31st day of August 2015, it appears to the Court that, on July 9, 2015,

the Senior Court Clerk issued a notice to the appellant to show cause why this

appeal should not be dismissed for his failure to file his notice of appeal in a timely

manner. The appellant failed to respond to the notice to show cause within the

required ten-day period. The Court directed the appellant’s trial counsel to

respond. Counsel indicated that he represented the appellant in entering a guilty

plea, and the appellant never indicated a desire to appeal. Under the

circumstances, dismissal of this action is deemed to be unopposed.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the within appeal is

DISMISSED.

BY THE COURT: /s/ Leo E. Strine, Jr. Chief Justice
