ORDER
On June 30, 2026, the Chief Deputy Clerk sent a notice of brief delinquency
to the appellant, Gregory Jones, because he had not filed an opening brief by the
June 25 deadline set by the Court. On July 17, the Chief Deputy Clerk issued a
notice, sent by certified mail, to Jones directing him to show cause why this appeal
should not be dismissed for his failure to file an opening brief. Jones received the
notice on July 24. A timely response to the notice was due on or before August 3.
To date, Jones has neither responded to the notice to show cause nor filed an opening
brief. Dismissal of this appeal is therefore deemed to be unopposed.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that this appeal be DISMISSED
under Supreme Court Rules 3(b)(2) and 29(b).
