      On August 16, 1999, the parties filed an agreed motion to vacate the judgment of the trial court and dismiss this appeal. In relevant portion, Rule 42.1 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure provides:

(a) The appellate court may dispose of an appeal as follows:

(1) in accordance with an agreement signed by all parties or their attorneys and filed with the clerk; or

(2) in accordance with a motion of appellant to dismiss the appeal or affirm the appealed judgment or order; but no party may be prevented from seeking any relief to which it would otherwise be entitled.

Tex. R. App. P. 42.1(a).

      The motion states that the parties have agreed to a settlement of their disputes. The motion is signed by attorneys for both the appellant and the appellee. The parties did not file a copy of the agreement with this court.

      Under the authority of Rule 42.1, this cause is dismissed and remanded to the trial court for further proceedings consistent with the parties’ agreement. Costs are taxed against the party who incurred them.
