NO. D-1-GN-18-003076, THE HONORABLE MAYA GUERRA GAMBLE, JUDGE PRESIDING

                            MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM

               Appellant Nationstar Mortgage, LLC has filed an unopposed motion for extension

of time to file its appellant’s brief. Nationstar Mortgage requests an additional ninety days to file

its brief so that the parties may continue ongoing settlement negotiations and resolve their

dispute “without the need for further litigation.”

               We construe Nationstar Mortgage’s motion as a motion to abate. We grant the

motion and abate the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.1(a)(2)(C). The parties shall submit either

a joint status report concerning the status of the settlement negotiations or a motion to dismiss on

or before October 31, 2019.

Before Justices Goodwin, Baker, and Kelly

Abated
