Upon review of the record, it appears that this court informed Appellant by letter dated March 14, 2003, that the time for docketing the record on appeal expired on March 3, 2003 and that, pursuant to Rule 11 of the Hawai`i 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. Appellant having failed to respond to said letter or to otherwise oppose dismissal,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed.

DATED: Honolulu, Hawai`i, April 7, 2003.
