             On appeal from the 444th District Court
                  of Cameron County, Texas.
____________________________________________________________

                         ORDER OF ABATEMENT
  Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Benavides and Longoria
                          Order Per Curiam

      The parties have filed a joint motion to abate this appeal for thirty days on the basis

that they have reached a settlement in this case but require time to effectuate the
agreement. The Court, having examined and fully considered the motion to abate the

appeal, is of the opinion that it should be granted. Accordingly, we GRANT the joint

motion, ABATE the appeal, and permit proceedings in the trial court to effectuate the

parties’ agreement. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(a)(2)(C). The appeal shall be abated until

such time as the parties file a motion to reinstate and dismiss the appeal. Such motion

should be filed no later than March 12, 2014. If the agreement is not finalized by that

date, the parties shall file a report advising this Court on the status of the proceedings in

the trial court.

                                                  PER CURIAM

Delivered and filed the
10th day of February, 2014.
