SUPPLEMENTAL OPINION

YVONNE T. RODRIGUEZ, Justice

In our opinion dated May 13, 2015, we suggested' a remittitur of $3,033.81 of the attorney’s fees awarded to Appellees for pretrial and trial services. We stated that if the remittitur were filed by Appellees within fifteen days of the date of the opinion, we would modify, the judgment with respect to the attorney’s fees award and affirm as modified. See Corral-Lerma v. Border Demolition & Envt’l, Inc., 467 S.W.3d 109, 127-28 (Tex.App.-El Paso 2015, no pet. h.)(not yet published).

The Court granted several motions for extension of time' to accept remittitur and suspended the remittitur deadline while we entertained motions for rehearing from both Appellant and Appellees, which were denied. Appellees ultimately timely accepted the remittitur on August 18, 2015, and asked the Court to modify the trial court’s judgment consistent with our opinion and judgment in this matter while reserving their right to appeal our remitti-tur decision under Rose v. Doctors Hosp., 801 S.W.2d 841, 848 (Tex.1990).

Accordingly, we vacate our judgment, but not our opinión, dated May 13, 2015. We reverse the judgment in part and remand Corral-Lerma’s trespass claim for trial. The remainder of the trial court’s judgment is modified to reflect an award .of $74,967.19 to Appellees for attorney’s fees related to pre-trial and trial services. As modified, we affirm the remainder of the trial court’s judgment. This Court’s opinion of May 13, 2015, otherwise remains in effect. ■ Appellees’ Motion to Clarify Judgment, Appellant’s Motion for Extension of Time-to file a- Response- to Appellees’ Motion-to Clarify Judgment, and Appellant’s Motion for Extension of Time to File a *483 Response to Appellees’ Remittitur are denied.
