TO THE HONORABLE DALLAS COURT OF APPEALS:

     Pursuant to Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 10 and 42.1(a)(2)(B),

Appellant Amber L. Morrison (AMorrison@) and Appellee Christopher

Fansler (“Fansler”) file their agreed motion to dismiss the instant appeal

and would respectfully show this Court as follows:

     1.    This appeal concerns a final judgment (entered on or about

February 21, 2015) in cause number DC-13-08561, styled Christopher Fansler

v. Amber Morrison, and pending in the 95th Judicial District Court of Dallas

County, Texas (Athe Fansler suit@).   Fansler filed his lawsuit seeking to

recover money damages for bodily injuries allegedly sustained due to an

automobile accident which occurred on or about February 5, 2013. On May

28, 2015, mediation was conducted regarding the Fansler suit and a

settlement was reached.

     2.    The resolution and conclusion of the Fansler suit renders this

appeal matter moot.

     3.    The settlement of the Fansler suit is in the process of being

finalized with this understanding that the Court will set aside the trial

court’s Judgment (entered on or about February 21, 2015) and remand the

                                      1
case to the trial court for rendition of judgment in accordance with the

parties’ agreement.

     4.    Accordingly, the parties request the Court enter an order or

judgment setting aside the trial court’s Judgment (entered on or about

February 21, 2015) and remanding the case to the trial court for rendition of

judgment in accordance with the parties’ agreement.

                                   Respectfully submitted,

                                   WALTERS, BALIDO & CRAIN, L.L.P.
