Before CAMPBELL and HANCOCK and PIRTLE, JJ.

                              MEMORANDUM OPINION

      Appellants, Northern Law Firm, P.C. and Van W. Northern, Individually, filed this

appeal complaining of the trial court’s summary judgment in favor of Appellee, Yellow

Book Sales and Distribution Company, Inc. Pending in this Court is an agreed motion

signed by both parties in which they represent the trial court committed reversible error

by granting summary judgment when a fact issue existed. They request the trial court’s

judgment be reversed and the cause remanded for a new trial.
       Pursuant to Rule 43.2(d) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, we grant

the motion. 1    Accordingly, the trial court’s judgment is reversed and the cause is

remanded to the trial court for further proceedings.
