MOTION TO DISMISS GRANTED; APPEAL DISMISSED

           Appellant Jimmy Adock appeals an order granting summary judgment in favor of appellee

Five Star Rentals/Sales, Inc. During the appeal, appellant filed a letter, stating the parties are

settling. As a result, we ordered the appeal abated and ordered the parties to file either a status

update regarding the settlement, or in the alternative, a dispositive motion.

           On January 11, 2019, appellant filed a “Motion for Non-Suit,” stating he “no longer desires

to prosecute this action against Appellee.” He then amended his motion and filed a “Joint Motion

to Dismiss Appeal with Prejudice,” requesting this court to dismiss the case.
                                                                                   04-18-00928-CV

       Accordingly, we order the abatement lifted and reinstate the appeal on this court’s docket.

We further grant the motion and dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(a)(2). We order all

costs to be borne by appellant. See id. R. 42.1(d) (absent agreement of parties, costs are taxed

against appellant).
