MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Lang, Brown, and Whitehill
Opinion by Justice Brown

Before the Court is appellant's agreed motion for rehearing on the appellate judgment. We deny the motion. On the Court's own motion, we vacate the opinion and corresponding judgment dated January 22, 2018. This is now the opinion of the Court.

Before the Court is appellant's January 8, 2018 agreed motion to vacate the trial court's judgment. Appellant filed this appeal seeking review of the trial court's final judgment and attendant trial and pretrial rulings. Since filing, the parties agreed to mediation and were able to resolve all of their issues related to this appeal. Per their settlement agreement, the parties wish to set aside the trial court's judgment and dismiss the litigation. Specifically, appellant "prays this Court: (1) vacate the trial court's judgment from which this appeal is taken, without regard to the merits, and (2) render judgment dismissing [a]ppellee's claims against [a]ppellant with prejudice, with each party bearing its own costs."

We grant the parties' motion, vacate the trial court's judgment without regard to the merits, and render judgment dismissing the case with prejudice. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(a)(1)(A), 43.2(e).
