GEORGE K. TRAMMELL, III, Respondent Below, Appellant, v. DCSE/SONYA ANN THOMAS, Petitioner Below, Appellee. No. 107, 2002 In the Supreme Court of the State of Delaware. Submitted: March 4, 2002 Decided: March 15, 2002
ORDER
This 15th day of March 2002, it appears to the Court that:
(1) On March 4, 2002, George K. Trammell, III filed a notice of appeal from a decision of a Family Court Commissioner dated February 27, 2002. A Commissioner's order is not a final judgment for purposes of appealing to this Court. 10 Del. C. § 915(d) provides that a party's right of appeal from a Commissioner's order shall be to a judge of the Family Court.
See Redden v. McGill, 549 A.2d 695 (Del. 1988) (holding that this Court's appellate jurisdiction over Family Court proceedings is limited to decisions of judges of that Court).
(2) The Court concludes, pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 29(c), that the within appeal manifestly fails on its face to invoke the Court's jurisdiction, and that the giving of notice of said defect would serve no meaningful purpose and that any response would be of no avail.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 29(c), that this appeal is DISMISSED, sua sponte.
