Settlement Agreement Voidability Due to Unilateral Mistake Regarding Claim Value
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe dispute centered on a claim that a prior agreement to settle a matter was voidable due to an alleged unilateral mistake regarding the value of a contingent claim involved in the settlement. The court reasoned that to invalidate a contract based on unilateral mistake, the mistaken party must show that the mistake concerned a basic assumption on which the contract was made, the mistake materially affected the exchange, and either the other party knew or should have known of the mistake or its effect, or the other party was not entitled to the benefit of the bargain due to the mistake's nature; here, the party seeking to void the settlement failed to demonstrate that the opposing party knew or should have known of the unilateral mistake concerning the claim's value, precluding rescission.
