OPINION ON SECOND MOTION FOR REHEARING
On August 28, 1990, the parties in this cause filed a document styled “Joint Motion to Vacate and Remand” in which they state that they have agreed to settle the underlying suit. The motion asks that, in order to allow the trial court to approve the settlement, this Court vacate its judgment in affirmance in this cause and remand to the trial court so that the settlement of the workers’ compensation claim may be approved by that court in accordance with applicable law.
Upon overruling appellant’s first motion for rehearing, the above opinion was substituted for the original opinion entered by this Court on July 3, 1990. We deem the joint motion filed by the parties on August 28, 1990, to be a second motion for rehearing. We grant the motion in part, reverse the judgment of the trial court and remand the cause to that court for entry of a judgment pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreement reached by the parties.
