MEMORANDUM OPINION
The appellant and the Office of the Attorney General of Texas (OAG) filed a
joint motion for reversal and remand of the order denying the appellant’s petition
to challenge acknowledgement of paternity. The appellant and the OAG agree that,
in the interest of justice, the case should be remanded to the trial court for genetic
testing. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.1(a)(2)(B). They further request that each party be
ordered to bear its own costs. Id. The custodial parent neither filed a notice of
appeal nor filed an objection to the joint motion for reversal and remand. We
vacate the judgment of the trial court without regard to the merits and remand the
cause to the trial court for further proceedings.
