Case No. 20020819-CA
 

F I L E D

(February 27, 2003)
 

2003 UT App 57

 

-----

Fourth District, Provo Department

The Honorable Lynn W. Davis

Attorneys: William Randall Lindsay, Draper, Appellant Pro Se

-----

Before Judges Bench, Davis, and Thorne.

PER CURIAM:

William Randall Lindsay appeals the district court's dismissal of his habeas petition as frivolous on its face. This case is before the court on a sua sponte motion for summary disposition pursuant to rule 10 of the Utah Rules of Appellate Procedure.

This court granted Lindsay an additional thirty days to respond to our motion, yet he failed to file a response. Consequently, Lindsay fails to identify how the judge erred in dismissing the petition. Further, Lindsay fails to present any substantial ground for appeal to merit further proceedings or consideration by this court. See Utah R. App. P. 10(a)(2).

Accordingly, we grant the sua sponte motion and affirm the district court's ruling because "it plainly appears that no substantial question is presented." See Utah R. App. P. 10(e).
