for new trial. Appellant has paid his filing fee for this appeal, there are currently

no briefing deadlines, and the Court has not issued an opinion or judgment in this

appeal. Appellant seeks no relief against the Appellee through this Motion or the

dismissal of his appeal. Appellant has filed a notice of non-suit, with prejudice, in

the matter from which she appeals.

Appellee has not sought any relief in this appeal and is unopposed to this

Motion.

Voluntary Dismissal of this Appeal with prejudice and providing that each party

agrees to bear their own costs, expenses, and attorneys fees.

Respectfully submitted,
