M E M O R A N D U M  O P I N I O N


This is an appeal from a judgment signed August 23, 2002.  On January 9, 2003, this Court ordered the parties to mediation.  This Court was notified on April 7, 2003, that a settlement had been reached in mediation.  On May 15, 2003, in accordance with the terms of the Court=s mediation order, the Court ordered the parties to file a motion to dismiss the appeal or other dispositive motion on or before May 27, 2003.  The Court granted two extensions of time to file the motion until July 18, 2003.  No motion was filed.  Instead, on July 24, 2003, appellee notified this Court that appellants had not approved the settlement documents.  Accordingly, appellants have not complied with this Court=s order.  On August 12, 2003, notification was transmitted to all parties of the Court=s intent to dismiss the appeal for failing to comply with this court=s order of May 15, 2003, which ordered appellant to file a dispositive motion.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c).  Appellant filed no response to this Court=s notice.

Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed.
