Appellant,
v.
BILLINGSLEY HOUSE MOVING, INC., and OLIVER BILLINGSLEY,
Appellees.
On Appeal from the 353rd Judicial District Court
Travis County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. D-I-GN-14-005006
AGREED MOTION TO DISMISS APPEAL
TO THE HONORABLE THIRD COURT OF APPEALS:
Pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.1, appellant, Joseph P. Thweatt,
files this Agreed Motion to Dismiss Appeal, seeking voluntary dismissal of this appeal
with prejudice.
Thweatt perfected this appeal by filing a notice of appeal on June 2, 2015, of an
interlocutory order of the 353rd Judicial District Court of Travis County. The order
denied a motion to dismiss a defamation claim asserted by Billingsley, which motion

Thweatt filed pursuant to Texas Civil Practices and Remedies Code chapter 27. The
Parties have resolved the dispute between them with respect to the defamation claim
only; therefore, Thweatt no longer wishes to prosecute this interlocutory appeal of his
motion to dismiss the defamation claim. Accordingly, Thweatt requests that the Clerk
dismiss this appeal with prejudice, with costs of appeal to be paid by the Thweatt.
Appellees Billingsley House Moving, Inc., and Oliver Billingsley are in agreement
with this motion, as reflected by the signature of their counsel below.
