IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE

JASON GAINES, JR.,1 § § No. 289, 2018 Respondent, § Appellant, § Court Below—Family Court § of the State of Delaware v. § § File No. CK15-03210 PATRICIA L. GAINES, § Petition No. 16-30656 § Petitioner Below, § Appellee. §

Submitted: November 27, 2018 Decided: December 7, 2018

ORDER

On November 1, 2018, the Senior Court Clerk issued a notice directing the

appellant to show cause why this appeal should not be dismissed for his failure to

pay the Family Court filing fee and transcript costs. The appellant failed to respond

to the notice to show cause within the required ten-day period. Dismissal of this

action is therefore deemed to be unopposed.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED, under Supreme Court Rules 3(b)(2)

and 29(b), that this appeal is DISMISSED.

BY THE COURT:
