ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

(By: Moon, C.J., Levinson, Nakayama,

Ramil, and Acoba, JJ.)

Upon review of the record, it appears that this court informed Appellants Leonard Wong and Cheryl Wong by letter dated September 22, 2000 that the time for filing the opening brief expired on September 14, 2000 and that, pursuant to Rule 30 of the Hawaii Rules of Appellate Procedure, the matter would be called to the attention of the court for such action as the court deemed proper including dismissal of the appeal; and appellants having failed to respond to said letter or to otherwise oppose dismissal; therefore,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed.

DATED: Honolulu, Hawaii, November 3, 2000.
