ORDER
The appellant filed a notice of appeal on January 25, 2019. Instead of paying
the filing fee, she submitted with her notice of appeal a motion to proceed in forma
pauperis, but the motion did not contain all the required information. On January
28, 2019, the Senior Court Clerk sent the appellant a letter enclosing the incomplete
motion and directing her to return the completed motion no later than February 12,
2019, or a notice to show cause would issue. On February 19, 2019, the Chief
Deputy Clerk issued a notice to the appellant to show cause why the appeal should
not be dismissed because of her failure to diligently prosecute the appeal by filing

the completed motion to proceed in forma pauperis. The appellant failed to respond
to the notice to show cause within the required ten-day period; therefore, dismissal
of this action is deemed to be unopposed.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED, under Supreme Court Rules 3(b)
and 29(b), that the appeal is DISMISSED.
