In The

Court of Appeals For The

First District of Texas ———————————— NO. 01-15-00584-CV ——————————— LORENZO WALKER, Appellant V. HOUSTON COMMUNITY COLLEGE, Appellee

On Appeal from the 80th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 2012-45866

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant, Lorenzo Walker, has filed a motion for voluntary dismissal of his

appeal, stating that he has filed a notice of non-suit with prejudice in the trial court,

and further requests that all costs and fees be assessed against the party incurring the

same. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(a)(1), (d). Although the motion states that appellee is unopposed to this motion, the motion does not contain a certificate of conference,

but does have a certificate of service on the appellee’s counsel, and more than ten

days have passed with no response filed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 10.1(a)(5), 10.3(a)(2).

No other party has filed a notice of appeal and no opinion has issued. See TEX. R.

APP. P. 42.1(a)(1), (c).

Accordingly, we grant the motion to dismiss and request for costs to be taxed

against the party who incurred the same, and dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R. APP.

P. 42.1(a)(1), (d), 43.2(f). We dismiss any other pending motions as moot.

PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Higley, Huddle, and Lloyd.
