WOOD, Jr., Circuit Judge.
Defendant-appellant Margaret Horn appeals a judgment entered against her in a diversity case initiated by plaintiff-appellee Frank Yockey for breach of contract. Horn and Yockey are former business partners who, upon the dissolution of their business relationship, entered into a settlement agreement intended to resolve all disagreements between the pair arising from their failed partnership. Yockey now alleges that Horn breached that settlement agreement; the district court agreed and Horn finds herself liable to Yockey in the amount of $50,000.
