IN THE MATTER OF DONOVAN KENT FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS
ORDER
This 14th day of September 2020, it appears to the Court that, on August 5, 2020, the Senior Court Clerk issued a notice directing the petitioner to show cause why his petition for a writ of habeas corpus should not be dismissed for this Court's lack of original jurisdiction to issue a writ of habeas corpus. The petitioner received the notice to show cause on August 11, 2020. A timely response was due on or before August 21, 2020. To date, the petitioner has not responded to the notice to show cause. Dismissal of the appeal is therefore deemed to be unopposed.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, under Supreme Court Rules 3(b)(2) and 29(b), that the appeal is DISMISSED.
BY THE COURT:
/s/ Karen L . Valihura
Justice
