abate the appeal is granted.  Accordingly, this appeal is abated and hereby removed from the court's
active docket.  The appeal may be reinstated upon motion of any party.  All appellate deadlines are
suspended during this abatement.

memorialized by a signed written agreement.  The parties will promptly notify this court if they fail
to finalize the settlement.  If the court receives neither notification from the parties within ninety

will proceed.
