OPINION

Opinion by:

ALMA L. LÓPEZ, Justice.

This is an appeal of a judgment arising out of the administration of a probate estate in Gillespie County. The underlying litigation began as a will contest and evolved into several actions and cross-actions. Construction of a settlement agreement of the will contest and of a testamentary “request that James Hartmann have the right of first refusal” on a 689.64-acre tract resulted in a six-day bench trial. For the reasons stated below, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
