Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

Appellant, Lee Meinen, and appellee, Jean Corbin, the administrator/executrix of the Estate of Clyne Edward Meinen, have filed a joint motion to dismiss this appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.1(a). According to the motion, the parties "have fully and finally compromised and settled" all matters in controversy between them.

This Court previously issued an opinion and judgment in this cause on March 1, 2001. The appeal remained pending in this Court, however, based on motions for rehearing and a motion to stay all proceedings on appeal pending settlement.

The Court, having examined and fully considered the documents on file and the joint motion to dismiss, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed. Accordingly, we withdraw the opinion and judgment of March 1, 2001, and substitute this opinion and judgment in their place. See id. 42.1(c).

The joint motion to dismiss is GRANTED and this appeal is DISMISSED. See id. 42.1(a)(1), 43.2(e). All other pending motions are DISMISSED AS MOOT. Costs are assessed against appellant. Id. 42.1(d).
