Upon review of the record, it appears that this court informed Appellant by letter dated February 28, 2005 that the time for filing the statement of jurisdiction expired on February 11, 2005 and by letter dated March 29, 2005 that the time for filing the opening brief expired on March 13, 2005, and that, pursuant to Rule 30 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 letters or to otherwise oppose dismissal,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed.

DATED: Honolulu, Hawai`i, June 8, 2005.
