The Guilford County District Court entered a Consent
Judgment on August 3, 1984, recording its approval of the
settlement agreement. A portion of the Consent Judgment reads:
it appearing to the Court that this is an action for
Absolute Divorce and Equitable Distribution and that
[decedent] has pled a prior separation agreement in bar
of [Kathleen's] marital property and money demands;
And it further appearing to the Court that * * *
the only matter currently pending is the claim of
[Kathleen] for Equitable Distribution and sums
allegedly due arising from the marital relationship;
And it further appearing that [Kathleen] and
[decedent] have agreed to a marital property settlement
in a certain amount to be paid by [decedent] to
[Kathleen] in full and complete satisfaction of all
claims alleged or which could have been alleged in the
pleadings;
* * * * * * *
The Consent Judgment contains no decision on the Deed of
Separation, nor did the court enter a separate judgment in regard
to it.
Decedent made the settlement payment on August 3, 1984. On
that same date, Mr. L. P. McLendon, Jr., as Kathleen's attorney-
in-fact, signed a Release of All Claims forever discharging
decedent
from any and all actions, causes of action, damages,
costs, loss of services, expenses, compensation, suits,
debts, claims, demands and obligations whatsoever, both
in law and in equity, which I ever had, now have, or
may hereafter have against [decedent] upon or by reason
of any matter, case or thing up to the date of the
execution of this release.
