                  APPELLANTS’ UNOPPOSED MOTION TO DISMISS


TO THE HONORABLE FIRST COURT OF APPEALS:

      Appellants, Rolando Acevedo, et al., respectfully file this Appellants’

Unopposed Motion to Dismiss as a result of a settlement agreement between the

parties of this appeal.

      1.     This case is pending in this Court. The Clerk’s Record has been on

file since August 6, 2014.

      2.     Appellants’ brief was originally due September 6, 2014.
      3.     The parties have been involved in settlement negotiations, which have

been fruitful. The clients have been contacted to seek their agreement to a global

settlement. Appellants asked for and received an abatement from the Court of

Appeals.

      4.     As requested by the Court, Appellants have provided status reports to

the Court on a regular basis.

      5.     The Court has graciously extended the abatement of this appeal until

June 20, 2015 so that counsel for Appellants could have time to obtain approval for

the settlements from Appellants.

      6.     Counsel has now confirmed Appellants’ agreement to the settlement,

thus, the abatement and appeal is no longer necessary.

      7.     Therefore, Appellants no longer wish to prosecute this appeal and ask

this Court to dismiss this appeal.



                                        Respectfully submitted,

                                         /s/Lance Christopher Kassab
