Memorandum Opinion by Justice Ross


MEMORANDUM OPINION

          Appellants have filed a joint motion to dismiss the pending appeal in this matter. 
Appellants inform this Court they have previously nonsuited their claims against
Appellee Southern County Mutual Insurance Company, and accordingly ask us to
dismiss the appeal against that Appellee.  As for the remaining Appellees, Appellants
assert that all differences have been resolved, and accordingly ask us to dismiss this
appeal.   The motion is signed by the attorneys for Appellees.  In such a case, no real
controversy exists, and in the absence of a controversy, the appeal is moot.  
          We grant Appellants' motion and dismiss this appeal.
