No. 08-04-00091-CVCourt of Appeals of Texas, Eighth District, El Paso.
January 13, 2005.
Appeal from 65th District Court of El Paso County, Texas (Tc# 2001CM2174).
John P. Mobbs, El Paso, TX, for Appellant.
Cori A. Harbour, The Hourbour Law Firm, El Paso, TX, for Appellee.
Before Panel No. 2 BARAJAS, C.J., McCLURE, and CHEW, JJ.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
ANN CRAWFORD McCLURE, Justice.
Pending before the Court is Appellant’s motion to dismiss this appeal pursuant to Tex.R.App.P. 42.1(a)(1), which states that:
(a) On Motion or By Agreement. The appellate court may dispose of an appeal as follows:
(1) On Motion of Appellant. In accordance with a motion of appellant, the court may dismiss the appeal or affirm the appealed judgment or order unless disposition would prevent a party from seeking relief to which it would otherwise be entitled.
Appellant no longer wishes to prosecute the appeal and Appellee does not object to dismissal. Accordingly, we grant Appellant’s motion and dismiss the appeal. Appellant’s motion does not reflect that the parties have reached an agreement regarding the disposition of costs on appeal. Accordingly, the costs are taxed against Appellant. See Tex.R.App.P. 42.1(d) (absent agreement of the parties, the court will tax costs against the appellant).
