No. N25A-05-004 OF LABOR, § § Appellee. § § Submitted: November 2, 2026 Decided: November 6, 2026 ORDER On August 20, 2026, Wanda Silva filed a notice of appeal from the Superior Court’s July 21, 2026 order affirming the Merit Employee Relations Board’s dismissal of a grievance that Silva had filed against the Delaware Department of Labor. On September 2, the Court denied Silva’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal. On October 2, the Superior Court informed the Court that Silva had not yet paid the Superior Court’s transcript-preparation fee. On October 5, the Chief Deputy Clerk issued a notice directing Silva to show cause why this appeal should not be dismissed for her failure to pay the Court’s filing fee or the Superior Court’s transcript-preparation fee. At Silva’s request, the Court extended the deadline for her to pay the Court’s filing fee to October 30. To date, Silva has not paid the Court’s filing fee or the Superior Court’s transcript-preparation fee. Dismissal of this appeal is therefore deemed to be unopposed. NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this appeal is DISMISSED under Supreme Court Rules 3(b) and 29(b). BY THE COURT: /s/ N. Christopher Griffiths Justice 2
