Sheila McLean, pro se.

McGuireWoods, LLP, by Christopher B. Karlsson, for Appellee Nationstar Mortgage LLC.

MURPHY, Judge.

On 12 August 2016, Appellant filed notice of appeal from the Order on Appeal of Clerk’s Order to Allow Foreclosure Sale and Order Denying Appellant Bond entered by Judge John W. Smith on 4 August 2016. We note that Appellant’s brief does not comply with North Carolina Rule of Appellate Procedure 28 in that it fails to: cite to the record; cite any legal authority; include a standard of review; include a signature page; or include any proof of service. Further, Appellant failed to

IN RE: MCLEAN

Opinion of the Court substantively discuss the Order Denying Appellant Bond on appeal, and, thus, we dismiss the appeal of this Order as abandoned. N.C. R. App. P. 28(b)(6); see also Goodson v. P.H. Glatfelter Co., 171 N.C. App. 596, 606, 615 S.E.2d 350, 358 (2005).

Further, Appellant appears to raise in her brief issues related to the trial court setting aside the dismissal of the foreclosure in an order entered by Judge Robert H. Hobgood on 10 August 2015. However, her Notice of Appeal did not reference this Order and her challenges to this order were not properly preserved in this appeal pursuant to Rule 3(d) of the North Carolina Rules of Appellate Procedure.

We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error as to the Order on Appeal of Clerk’s Order to Allow Foreclosure Sale. Accordingly, we affirm both orders of Judge Smith.

AFFIRMED.

Judges CALABRIA and DIETZ concur.

Report per Rule 30(e).
