IN THE TENTH COURT OF APPEALS No. 10-23-00354-CV RUBEN TADEO GARCIA AND VICTOR ORTEGA NUNEZ, Appellants v. GEICO SECURITY INSURANCE COMPANY, Appellee

From the County Court at Law No. 1 Ellis County, Texas Trial Court No. 23-C-3050

MEMORANDUM OPINION This appeal was referred to mediation on December 6, 2023. Pursuant to the order referring the appeal to mediation, appellants were ordered to file a notice with the Clerk of this Court within 14 days from the date of the referral order which either identified an agreed-upon mediator or stated that the parties were unable to agree upon a mediator.

Because no notice had been received, the Court requested a status report from appellants within 14 days from the date of the Order. The Court warned that if no status report was timely received, this appeal would be dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b),(c).

In response, appellants’ motion to dismiss was filed on February 26, 2024. In the motion, appellants assert the parties resolved the underlying dispute, and a Release of Judgment has been filed in the trial court. Thus, they further assert, the appeal is no longer necessary and should be dismissed.

Accordingly, appellants’ motion is granted, and this appeal is dismissed. TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(a)
