IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Appellant file a brief with the Court within thirty (30) days of the date of this Order setting forth the jurisdiction of this Court to hear this matter. Respondent may file a reply brief within ten (10) days thereafter; and
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Order Governing Procedure is held in abeyance pending a determination by this Court regarding its jurisdiction to hear this matter.
AND IT IS SO ORDERED.
