Nature Of The Case

This section contains the nature of the case and procedural background.

Facts

Cox (P) was injured when she full-on property owned by Pearl Investment Co. (D) and leased by Goodwill Industries. P had released Goodwill Industries from liability beyond $2,500 because Goodwill paid her that sum in return for a 'Covenant Not to Proceed with Suit.' Under the release, P had expressly reserved the right to sue any other person or persons against whom they may have or assert any claim on account of damages arising out of the above-described accident. P sued D. D moved for summary judgment; the release of one tortfeasor releases all others who may have liability. The motion was granted.
