                            COURT OF APPEALS

                   THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

                       CORPUS CHRISTI – EDINBURG
____________________________________________________________

              IN THE MATTER OF THE ESTATE OF
            DONALD WAYNE BRATCHER, DECEASED
____________________________________________________________

                On appeal from the County Court
                  of Matagorda County, Texas.
____________________________________________________________

                          MEMORANDUM OPINION
                Before Justices Hinojosa, Tijerina, and Silva
                 Memorandum Opinion by Justice Tijerina

      This matter is before the Court on appellants’ amended motion to nonsuit notice of

appeal. Appellants no longer desire to prosecute their claim rendering this appeal moot.

      The Court, having considered the amended motion, is construing it as a motion to

dismiss and is of the opinion that the amended motion should be granted. See TEX. R.

APP. P. 42.1(a)(1). Therefore, the amended motion to dismiss is granted, and the appeal

is hereby dismissed.
      Costs will be taxed against the appellants. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(d) ("Absent

agreement of the parties, the court will tax costs against the appellant."). Because the

appeal is dismissed at appellants request, no motion for rehearing will be entertained.

                                                                     JAIME TIJERINA
                                                                     Justice

Delivered and filed on the
17th day of February, 2022.
