       Before the Court is appellant’s December 31, 2012 motion to dismiss the appeal. In the

motion, appellant states the parties have reached an agreement to compromise and settle their

differences in this appeal. We GRANT appellant’s motion, and pursuant to his request, we

ABATE this appeal to permit the trial court to effectuate the parties’ agreement. See TEX. R.

APP. P. 42.1(a)(2)(C). The appeal will be reinstated in FORTY-FIVE DAYS or when the Court

receives a motion to dismiss confirming the trial court has effectuated the parties’ agreement,

whichever is first.
