      This court has considered the record on appeal in this case and holds that

there was error in part of the trial court’s judgment. We reverse the trial court’s

judgment to the extent that it (1) finds that appellant John Phillip Mote individually

breached the Settlement Agreement, (2) grants appellees Charles T. Gardner

and Janice Marie Gardner the remedy of specific performance of the Settlement

Agreement as to John Phillip Mote individually, (3) declares the lease released

as to appellant Mote Resources, Inc., (4) quiets title as to any claim by Mote

Resources, Inc., and (5) awards Charles T. Gardner and Janice Marie Gardner

attorney’s fees against John Phillip Mote individually. We affirm the remainder of

the trial court’s judgment.

costs of this appeal, for which let execution issue.
