without reaching the merits of the case; and (2) remand the cause to the trial court to effectuate the

mediated settlement agreement of the parties, pursuant to TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(a)(2).

       We grant the motion and without reaching the merits of the appeal, we hereby set aside the

judgment of the trial court and remand the matter for further proceedings as necessary to effectuate
the parties’ agreement.
