M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

This is an appeal from an order in a suit to modify the parent-child relationship signed July 30, 2003.  On November 20, 2003, this Court ordered the parties to mediation.  On January 20, 2004, the mediator filed a report stating that the case had settled.

Also on January 20, 2004, appellant James Michael Rau, and appellee Natalie May Moore, filed in this Court a signed mediated binding settlement agreement as to all issues.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.1(a)(2).  As part of their agreement, the parties request that the cause be remanded to the trial court for entry of an agreed order in compliance with the terms of the mediated settlement agreement.  On February 2, 2004, the parties filed a joint motion requesting the cause be remanded for entry of a judgment in accordance with their agreement.  The motion is granted.

Accordingly, the judgment is set aside without regard to the merits and the cause is remanded to the trial court for rendition of an agreed order in accordance with the terms of the parties= settlement agreement.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.1(a)(2).  Mandate shall issue immediately.
