hereby DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. Costs will be taxed against appellants.

See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(d) ("Absent agreement of the parties, the court will tax costs

against the appellant."). Having dismissed the appeal at appellants’ request, no motion

for rehearing will be entertained, and our mandate will issue forthwith.
