             APPELLANT’S MOTION TO DISMISS APPEAL
       _______________________________________________________

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

      COMES NOW, Warren Kopecky, Appellant, and files the Motion to

Dismiss Appeal. On January 16, 2015, this Court abated the appeal until May 1,

2015 so that the parties could pursue a resolution. Appellant no longer intends to

pursue this appeal, and hereby requests that this Court dismiss this appeal pursuant

to TRAP 42.1(a)(1).

      Appellees do not oppose the dismissal. No cross appeals were filed, and

therefore the dismissal sought by this motion will dispose of all issues in this
matter that are before the Court. It is the parties’ intent that all costs of the appeal

will be borne by the party incurring same.

                                 Respectfully submitted,

                                 ALMANZA, BLACKBURN & DICKIE, LLP
