The Court, having considered the documents on file and appellant+s unopposed motion to dismiss his appeal against Del Mar College, is of the opinion that the motion should be granted. See id. 42.1(a). Appellant+s appeal against Carlos Garcia is ordered SEVERED and will be docketed in this Court under cause number 13-08-211-CV, and will proceed in due course.

Appellant+s motion to dismiss his appeal against Del Mar College is hereby granted and his appeal is DISMISSED. Each party will bear its own appellate costs and attorney+s fees. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(d) ("Absent agreement of the parties, the court will tax costs against the appellant.").
