Indiana Supreme Court August 13, 1999, 43S03-9903-CV-167 (Pelo v. Franklin College of Indiana)

ON PETITION TO TRANSFER

BOEHM, Justice.

This case deals with ability of a plaintiff who releases one tortfeasor to pursue others who are potentially liable for the same injury. We hold today, as we did in

Huffman v. Monroe County Community Sch. Corp.,

588 N.E.2d 1264 (Ind.1992), that a release agreement is to be construed as a contract.
