PER CURIAM
Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Chief Justice
Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice
Lori I. Valenzuela, Justice
Delivered and Filed: June 9, 2021
VACATED AND REMANDED
On June 29, 2020, appellants filed a notice with this court stating appellants were in
bankruptcy. See TEX. R. APP. P. 8. This appeal and all time periods were accordingly stayed from
the date the bankruptcy petition was filed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 8.2. This court subsequently issued
an order abating this appeal. For administrative purposes, this case was treated as a closed case,
unless and until it is reinstated in accordance with Rule 8.3 of the Texas Rules of Appellate
Procedure.
04-19-00503-CV
On May 26, 2021, the parties filed a “Joint Motion to Vacate Judgment and Remand
Pursuant to Settlement” moving this court to set aside the district court’s “Corrected Final
Judgment” without regard to the merits and remand the case to the district court to dismiss the
claims pursuant to the parties’ settlement. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(a)(2)(B).
We order this appeal REINSTATED, and the motion is GRANTED. We VACATE the
district court’s “Corrected Final Judgment” without regard to its merits and REMAND this case
to the district court for rendition of judgment in accordance with the parties’ settlement agreement.
See id. Because the motion does not indicate that the parties agreed otherwise, costs are taxed
against the appellant. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(d).
