La. Uni. R. Ct. Appeal. 2-8.5
In cases where the parties desire to dismiss or to remand an appeal in which jurisdiction of the Court of Appeal has attached, but in which the record on appeal has not yet been lodged, the court may nevertheless consider a joint motion to such effect, provided the parties submit their motion signed by all counsel of record, and by each party not represented by counsel, together with, in the case of a motion to dismiss the appeal, the statement of counsel that all costs incurred in the trial court have been paid, or that counsel will be responsible for the payment of same. The motion shall be accompanied by a certificate from the clerk of the trial court indicating that the motion to dismiss or to remand has been signed by all counsel of record, and by each party not represented by counsel. It shall show that the appeal bond, if required, has been filed or, in the case of a pauper suit, indicate the lack of necessity for an appeal bond.
