                   Before QUINN, C.J., and PARKER and YARBROUGH, JJ.

        Appellant, ECW Investments LLC, appeals from the trial court’s order sustaining

the objection of appellee, Tarrant Appraisal District, to certain of ECW’s evidence,

granting summary judgment in favor of Tarrant Appraisal District, and denying ECW’s

plea to the jurisdiction.      On February 23, 2023, the parties filed a “Joint Notice of

        Originally appealed to the Second Court of Appeals, this case was transferred to this Court by the
        1

Supreme Court of Texas pursuant to its docket equalization efforts. TEX. GOV’T CODE ANN. § 73.001 (West
2013).
Agreement and Motion for Remand” signed by both parties’ attorneys. In the motion, the

parties represent that they have, “agreed to have the trial court enter an order of nonsuit

. . . with each party bearing its own costs and attorney’s fees.” They also “request this

Court set aside the trial court’s judgment without regard to the merits and remand the

case to the trial court for entry of nonsuit in accordance with the parties’ agreement.”

       Under the authority of Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.1(a)(2)(B), we grant

the parties’ joint motion, set aside the judgment of the trial court, and remand the case to

the trial court for effectuation of their settlement agreement. Having set aside the trial

court’s judgment at the request of the parties, no motion for rehearing will be entertained

and our mandate will issue forthwith.
