NELLIE BELL, AS LEGAL REPRESENTATIVE
OF THE ESTATE OF GEORGE TRAYLOR, Appellee
On Appeal from the 276th Judicial District Court
Titus County, Texas
Trial Court No. 30,612
Before Morriss, C.J., Ross and Carter, JJ.
Memorandum Opinion by Justice Ross
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant Titus Regional Medical Center and Appellee Nellie Bell, acting as representative of the estate of George Traylor, have presented this Court with a joint motion to dismiss the pending appeal in this matter. The trial court denied Titus' plea to the jurisdiction, and Titus perfected the instant interlocutory appeal. The parties now represent to this Court they have reached a "full and final settlement." In such a case, no real controversy exists, and in the absence of a controversy, the appeal is moot.
We remand this cause to the trial court for entry of orders to effectuate the settlement agreement among the parties. We dismiss the instant appeal.
Donald R. Ross
