Reasons

• Per LINDA M. VANZI, Chief Judge (EMIL J. KIEHNE, Judge and JENNIFER L. ATTREP, Judge concurring):
  The decision to affirm the District Court's ruling was based on the appellant's failure to file a memorandum opposing the proposed summary affirmance within the designated period, as noted in the notice of proposed summary disposition. The absence of opposition led the Court of Appeals to proceed with affirmance without further examination of the case's merits. (paras 1-3)
