Opinion

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-09-00703-CV

Hays Consolidated Independent School District, Appellant

v.

Kimberly Drake, Appellee

FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF HAYS COUNTY, 207TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT NO. 09-0603, HONORABLE CHARLES R. RAMSAY, JUDGE PRESIDING

MEMORANDUM OPINION

This is an interlocutory appeal from a district court order denying a plea to the

jurisdiction. See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. § 51.014(a)(8) (West 2008). The parties have

filed a joint motion to dismiss this appeal, advising that they have compromised their differences in

the underlying cause. The parties further request that we render judgment effectuating the parties’

settlement agreement, specifically that we “render a take-nothing judgment and dismiss this appeal.”

Given the limited scope of our subject-matter jurisdiction in this interlocutory appeal, we grant

the joint motion only to the extent of rendering judgment dismissing this appeal. See Tex. R. App.

P. 42.1(a)(2)(A).
