Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas MEMORANDUM OPINION

No. 04-22-00009-CV

IN THE INTEREST OF D.R.B. and E.B., Children

From the 57th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 1988-CI-00019 Honorable John D. Gabriel, Jr., Judge Presiding

Opinion by: Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice

Sitting: Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice Beth Watkins, Justice Sandee Bryan Marion, Chief Justice (Ret.) 1

Delivered and Filed: November 8, 2023

MOTION TO DISMISS GRANTED; DISMISSED

On August 1, 2023, appellant Richard Breque and appellee Erika Breque filed a Joint

Motion to Stay this Appeal. In the motion, the parties requested we stay the appeal because they

had reached a settlement agreement and planned to file a joint motion to dismiss the appeal once

appellant had satisfied requirements set out in their agreement and an agreed order. We granted

the parties’ motion, withdrew the formal submission date, and ordered the parties to file either a

motion to dispose of the appeal or status update by September 6, 2023. On September 6, 2023,

appellee filed a status report indicating appellant was in compliance with their agreement and the

agreed order, and the final requirement would be satisfied by October 27, 2023.

1 The Honorable Sandee Bryan Marion, Chief Justice (Retired) of the Fourth Court of Appeals, sitting by assignment of the Chief Justice of the Texas Supreme Court. See TEX. GOV’T CODE §§ 74.003, 75.002, 75.003. 04-22-00009-CV

On October 24, 2023, the parties filed a joint motion indicating appellant had satisfied the

agreement and agreed order; they requested we dismiss the appeal with prejudice. After

consideration, we reinstate this appeal on this court’s docket, grant the motion, and dismiss the

appeal with prejudice. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(a)(1). Because the motion does not disclose an

agreement regarding the assessment of costs, we further order all costs assessed against appellant.

See id. R. 42.1(d) (absent agreement of the parties, costs are taxed against appellant).

Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice
