Original Proceeding
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Relator, Double Diamond, Inc., and real party in interest, White Bluff Property
Owners Association, Inc., have informed this Court that they have settled their dispute
in appellate cause number 10-18-00060-CV. Specifically, the parties filed a “Joint Motion
to Vacate and Dismiss,” requesting that we: (1) lift the abatement currently in place in
this original proceeding; (2) vacate the trial court’s orders dated October 30, 2017,
December 7, 2017, and January 9, 2018; (3) remand to the trial court for entry of take-
nothing judgments dismissing all claims with prejudice; (4) order that all costs on appeal
shall be borne by the parties or parties incurring the same; and (5) order that this Court’s
mandate shall issue immediately.
After review, we grant the parties’ “Joint Motion to Vacate and Dismiss” in this
proceeding. Accordingly, we lift the abatement in this proceeding, and without regard
to the merits and effectuating the parties’ settlement agreement, we vacate the trial court’s
October 30, 2017, December 7, 2017, and January 9, 2018 orders and remand to the trial
court for entry of take-nothing judgments “dismissing Appellee’s claims against
Appellant with prejudice and dismissing Appellant’s claims against Appellee with
prejudice.” See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(a)(2)(B).
Relying on the parties’ settlement agreement, as articulated in the parties’ joint
motion in this case, we order that each party bear their own costs of court and the costs
of this proceeding shall be paid by the party incurring same. See id. at R. 42.1(a)(2)(A),
(d), 43.4. And furthermore, we order that this Court’s mandate in this proceeding shall
issue immediately.
