                                       ORDER

      The City of Beaumont perfected an accelerated appeal from an order denying

its plea to the jurisdiction. On July 31, 2018, the City of Beaumont filed a motion to

remand the case to the trial court for entry of an agreed final judgment. No objection

has been filed by the appellee, Joseph Fazio.

      We grant the motion and abate the appeal until September 10, 2018. See Tex.

R. App. P. 42.1(a)(2)(C). If a settlement has been finalized by that date, the appellant

is instructed to file a motion to reinstate and dismiss the accelerated appeal in

                                           1
accordance with their settlement agreement. If the parties have not finalized a

settlement by that date, the appellant must file a report informing this Court about

the status of the appeal and request an extension of the abatement.

      ORDER ENTERED August 9, 2018.
