                        MEMORANDUM OPINION
        Before Chief Justice Burns, Justice Molberg, and Justice Goldstein
                         Opinion by Chief Justice Burns
      Before the Court is the parties’ joint motion to dismiss the appeal. They ask
that we dismiss the appeal and return the matter “to the trial court so that a final
dismissal of all claims may be effectuated.” We grant the motion, which we
construe as a motion under Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.1(a)(2)(B), set
aside the trial court’s judgment without regard to the merits, and remand the case
      to the trial court for rendition of judgment in accordance with the parties’
agreement. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(a)(2)(B).
