CITY OF EDINBURG, TEXAS, Appellant,
v.
CESAR TORRES, Appellee.
ON APPEAL FROM THE 139TH DISTRICT COURT
OF HIDALGO COUNTY, TEXAS
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Peña, West, and Cron
Memorandum Opinion by Justice Peña
This cause is before the Court on appellant City of Edinburg, Texas’s “Motion to
Dismiss Appeal Without Prejudice.” Appellant informs the Court that this pending
interlocutory appeal from the trial court’s denial of its “Second Plea to the Jurisdiction as
to [appellee’s] Third Amended Petition” has been superseded by the filing of appellee
Cesar Torres’s “Fourth Amended Petition.” The Court, having considered appellant’s
motion to dismiss appeal, is of the opinion that the motion should be granted. See TEX.
R. APP. P. 42.1(a)(1) (allowing the Court to dismiss an appeal “[i]n accordance with a
motion of appellant”). Accordingly, we grant appellant’s motion, and the appeal is hereby
dismissed. Costs are taxed against appellant. See id. R. 42.1(d) (“Absent agreement of
the parties, the court will tax costs against the appellant.”). Having dismissed the appeal
at appellant’s request, no motion for rehearing will be entertained.
L. ARON PEÑA JR.
