____________________________________________________________

On May 6, 2010, relator, Directory Assistants, Inc., filed a petition for writ of mandamus. Relator has now filed a motion to dismiss this original proceeding. According to the motion to dismiss, the parties have compromised and settled their differences.

The Court, having considered the documents on file and relator's motion to dismiss this original proceeding, is of the opinion that the motion should be granted. Accordingly, we GRANT the motion to dismiss. We LIFT the stay previously imposed by this Court. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.10(b) ("Unless vacated or modified, an order granting temporary relief is effective until the case is finally decided."). We DISMISS this original proceeding without reference to the merits thereof.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

PER CURIAM
