Benz v. Town Center Land, LLC
New Mexico Court of Appeals
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION
VIGIL, Judge.
{1} In settlement of an unrelated dispute, Plaintiff IcelcBenz executed a final agreement and release, which discharged “any and all known and unknown claims and causes of action” against Defendant David Blanc. At the trial in this case, Defendants argued, and the district court agreed, that the release included Plaintiffs’ claims in the current dispute. Judgment was entered in favor of Defendants and Plaintiffs appeal. We conclude that the language of the release is unambiguous and that the district court erred. We therefore reverse and remand.
