United States Ninth Circuit

In a dispute arising from the validity of a settlement agreement where plaintiffs claimed that the omission of several stock transfer documents and a lower-than-expected post-settlement disclosure of common stock value rendered settlement agreement uneforceable, judgment of the district court is affirmed where such omissions were an only important term that affects the value of the bargain, and the parties were on equal bargaining footing such that the subsequent discovery of stock value did not make agreement uneforceable.
