Answer 1

Answer:

In Carmen's suit against Dex to recover her repair and medical expenses, Carmen will most likely recover:

B. Nothing

Explanation:

In the question it has been provided that:

Dex and Carmen had met an auto accident and then Dex offers Carmen $2000. Carmen also promises Dex that she would not pursue any legal claim or any potential legal claim against Dex.

Now later on Carmen discovers that due to the accident her car got major damage and now $1500 will be required for repairing her car and also she would have to go through medical expenses for a latent injury which will amount to $4000.

So, now if Carmen suit against Dex to get repair her car and also bear all her medical expenses then Carmen is most likely to recover:

B. Nothing.

If Dex do not agrees to what Carmen is claiming then this type of agreement is called a RELEASE contract.

RELEASE: It refers to a type of contract in which a party who is suffering claims for certain things or certain amount but the other party refuses and say that there are no such claims named after him for whatever reasons.
