The answer is: enforce the agreement, as copies of the text messages are sufficient writings.

For an agreement to be enforceable by law, there are several things that need to exist:

- Enforceable agreement (the promise to take care of the daughter)

The agreement between max and Juli fulfill all of those criteria. This is why the court would most likely enforce the agreement.

¿De qué se trató el Boom Petrolero?

Del periodo de explotación del petróleo ecuatoriano desde 1972.

La bonanza petrolera en el Ecuador, o también llevada el Boom petrolero del Ecuador comenzó en el año de 1972 con la inauguración del famoso SOTE, que quiere decir Sistema de Oleoducto Transecuatoriano. En aquella época, ese desarrollo de pozos petroleros permitió que el país exportada el petróleo crudo a otros países a precios competitivos. De acuerdo a estadísticas del gobierno ecuatoriano, las exportaciones llegaron a ser de 25 millones de barriles a un precio de $2.50 dólares por barril de crudo.

Esa bonanza le ayudó a Ecuador a fortalecer su economía, aumentando sus ingresos por exportaciones hasta en un 49%, comparados con el año anterior.
