On Appeal from the 113th District Court

MEMORANDUM OPINION

          On March 17, 2008, mediator James C. Henry filed in this Court a notice that the parties had settled on February 21, 2008. No party filed a motion to dismiss the appeal based on the repressented settlement. On April 16, 2008, this Court notified the parties that, if they did not demonstrate that a live controversy existed between them as to the merits of the appeal, the Court could dismiss the appeal within 15 days of the date of the order. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a). More than 15 days have passed since the Court’s April 16, 2008 notice, and no response has been filed by any party. The appeal’s appearing moot, and no response having been filed demonstrating the contrary, the Court dismisses the appeal. See id.

          Any pending motions in this appeal are overruled as moot. The Clerk is directed to issue mandate within 10 days of the date of this opinion. See Tex. R. App. P. 18.1.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Taft, Jennings, and Bland.
