How has the court determined that a settlement agreement signed by all parties in a sexual assault case is enforceable?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Daskalakis v. Garcia, G056496 (Cal. App. 2019):

justifies reversal of the judgment." (Jameson v. Desta (2018) 5 Cal.5th 594, 609.) The record below included a settlement agreement ostensibly signed by all the parties to the Orange County litigation, and Lupe neither denied signing the agreement nor argued lack of consent in her opposition to the motion for entry of judgment. On this limited record, we find no error in the court's conclusion that Daskalakis "met his burden of showing [the] settlement agreement to be enforceable."
