On Appeal from the County Court at Law

Trial Court Cause No. 2005L-3874

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

This is an appeal from a judgment signed April 26, 2006.  On May 17, 2007, the court ordered the parties to mediate this case.  On June 25, 2007, the mediator notified this court that the parties had reached a settlement agreement at mediation.  According to the terms of this court=s mediation order, the parties were required to filed a motion to dismiss the appeal, or other dispositive motion, within ten days of the completion of mediation.  No motion was filed.  On July 12, 2007, the court ordered the parties to file a motion to dismiss or other dispositive motion within ten days.  Appellee requested and was granted an extension of time to file the motion until August 10, 2007.  On August 6, 2007, appellee advised this court that she had complied with the settlement agreement, but appellant had not provided a motion to dismiss the appeal. 

Therefore, on August 21, 2007, this court notified appellant that the appeal would be dismissed for failure to comply with this court=s July 12, 2007, order, unless any party filed a response to this court=s notice by September 4, 2007, showing meritorious grounds to continue the appeal.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c).  No response was received.

Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed.
