On appeal from the 148th District Court of Nueces County, Texas.
Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Longoria and Tijerina
ORDER OF ABATEMENT
PER CURIAM
This case is before the Court on a joint motion to abate appeal pending settlement. The parties have entered a mediated settlement agreement which might resolve the issues in this appeal. The settlement agreement includes terms to prepare and file motions to dismiss this cause. Furthermore, the parties jointly moved to abate this matter to conserve judicial and client resources.
The Court, having examined and fully considered the documents on file and the joint motion, is of the opinion that the joint motion should be granted. Therefore, the joint motion to abate pending settlement is granted, and this matter is abated until October 31, 2022.
The Court directs appellants to file, on or before October 31, 2022, either (1) a motion to reinstate the appeal, or (2) a motion to dismiss the appeal pursuant to settlement.
