Marty had a contract to paint peters house for $2,000. marty painted the house and peter did not pay marty (under the contract he was to make payment 7 days after completion of the job). peter was happy with the paint job; he didnt pay marty because peter had lost his job and did not get a paycheck that month. six months later, marty needed money badly. marty told peter that if peter would give him $1,100 immediately, marty would release him from the other $900 owed. peter agreed and gave marty a check for $1,100. on the check, peter wrote payment in full. marty cashed the check. two months after cashing the check, marty demanded the other $900 from peter, and filed a lawsuit. who should win and why?

Alandowner and his neighbor purchased adjoining undeveloped lots. after both built homes on their respective lots, the landowner suggested to the neighbor that a common driveway be built where the two lots joined. the neighbor agreed. the landowner and the neighbor split the cost of constructing the driveway and entered into a written agreement to equally share the costs of its upkeep and maintenance. the agreement was recorded in the county recorder's office. two years later, the neighbor built a new driveway located entirely on his lot. the common driveway, which the landowner continued to use but which the neighbor no longer used, began to deteriorate. the landowner asked the neighbor for money to maintain the common driveway, but the neighbor refused to contribute. three years later, the neighbor conveyed his lot to a friend. the friend entered into possession and used only the driveway built by the neighbor. by this time, the common driveway had deteriorated badly and contained numerous potholes. the landowner asked the friend to pay half of what it would take to repair the common driveway. the friend refused. the landowner repaired the driveway and sued the friend for 50% of the cost of repairs. will the landowner prevail?
