Speedlin, Justice Delivered and Filed: July 28, 2010 DISMISSED AS MOOT The parties have filed a joint motion to dismiss this appeal, stating that they have reached an agreement to compromise and settle all matters in controversy between them and that pursuant to that agreement, the trial court has signed an order granting a new trial. The parties represent that the trial court s order, which they have attached, renders this appeal moot. Therefore, we grant the parties motion to dismiss and dismiss this appeal as moot. See TEX. R.
