                    HOUSTON COMMUNITY COLLEGE,
                               Defendant-Appellee

Appeal from the 80th Judicial District of Harris County (Honorable Larry Weiman,
                    presiding); Trial Cause No. 2012-45866.

 APPELLANT’S MOTION FOR VOLUNTARY DISMISSAL OF APPEAL

TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE COURT OF APPEALS:

      COMES NOW Lorenzo Walker, the Plaintiff-Appellant (“Appellant”), and

respectfully moves the Court for Voluntary Dismissal of his appeal from the

dismissal of his claims against Houston Community College, Defendant-Appellee

(“Appellee”).

      Appellant filed his Notice of Appeal on June 30, 2015, from the trial court’s

order granting Appellee’s motion for summary judgment, thereby dismissing all of
the Appellant’s claims against Appellee, and the order denying Appellant’s motion

for new trial. Appellant has paid his filing fee for this appeal, there are currently

no briefing deadlines, and the Court has not issued an opinion or judgment in this

appeal. Appellant seeks no relief against the Appellee through this Motion or the

dismissal of his appeal. Appellant has filed a notice of non-suit, with prejudice, in

the matter from which she appeals.

      Appellee has not sought any relief in this appeal and is unopposed to this

Motion.

                                     PRAYER

      Appellant respectfully prays that the Honorable Court grant this Motion for

Voluntary Dismissal of this Appeal with prejudice and providing that each party

agrees to bear their own costs, expenses, and attorneys fees.

                                       Respectfully submitted,
