                          IN THE COURT OF APPEALS

                                                   §      JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT
 TROJAN TUBULAR SERVICES, LLC
 AND NORTH AMERICAN TUBULAR
 SERVICES, LLC,
 APPELLEES                                         §      SMITH COUNTY, TEXAS

                                  MEMORANDUM OPINION
                                      PER CURIAM
       Appellants, Jeremy Herndon and Tenacious Torque, L.L.C., and Appellees, Trojan Tubular
Services, L.L.C. and North American Tubular Services, L.L.C., filed a joint motion to dismiss this
interlocutory appeal, which states that all matters involved in the appeal have been resolved by
agreement. The parties ask that this Court dismiss this appeal and remand the case to the trial court
for rendition of judgment in accordance with the parties’ agreement.
       Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.1 sets forth the actions that this Court may take in
accordance with an agreement signed by the parties or their attorneys and filed with the clerk.
TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(a)(2). We may: (A) render judgment effectuating the parties’ agreement; (B)
set aside the trial court’s judgment without regard to the merits and remand the case to the trial
court for rendition of judgment in accordance with the agreement; or (C) abate the appeal and
permit proceedings in the trial court to effectuate the agreement. TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(a)(2).
       Accordingly, we grant the joint motion to dismiss. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(a)(2). As this
case involves an interlocutory appeal from orders denying motions to dismiss pursuant to Chapter
27 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code, as opposed to a judgment on the merits, we
remand the case to the trial court for rendition of judgment in accordance with the parties’
agreement.
Opinion delivered September 27, 2019.
Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Hoyle, J., and Neeley, J.
