By order to show cause dated October 15, 2012, the parties were directed to show cause before this Court why an order should or should not be made dismissing the appeal in the above-entitled proceeding as abandoned, and assigned counsel's motion was held in abeyance in the interim.
Now, upon the order to show cause and no papers having been filed in response thereto, and upon the papers filed in support of assigned counsel's motion and no papers having been filed in opposition or in relation thereto, it is
ORDERED that the motion to dismiss the appeal is granted, and the appeal is dismissed, without costs or disbursements; and it is further,
ORDERED assigned counsel's motion is granted.
