MOTION TO DISMISS GRANTED; APPEAL DISMISSED; PETITION FOR WRIT OF
MANDAMUS DISMISSED

       On August 11, 2009, appellant King Industries, Inc. filed an appeal and it was assigned

appellate cause number 04-09-00494-CV. On September 10, 2009, relator King Industries, Inc. filed

a petition for writ of mandamus and it was assigned cause number 04-09-00569-CV. Both cases

arbitration. On October 19, 2009, King Industries, Inc. filed an agreed motion to dismiss the

consolidated appeal and petition for writ of mandamus because the parties entered into a written

settlement agreement. Accordingly, the motion to dismiss is GRANTED and the consolidated

appeal and petition for writ of mandamus are DISMISSED. See TEX . R. APP . P. 42.1(a)(1).
