Richard L. Pride v. Brett W. Harris

COMPTON, Justice. This case involves property damage and personal injury arising from an automobile accident. Pride obtained a judgment in
the district court for property damage. He cashed a check tendered by Harris in satisfaction of the judgment. He then sued
in superior court for personal injury. The superior court held that Pride's personal injury claim was barred by accord and
satisfaction. On appeal, Pride argues that (1) there was no consideration for or intent to enter into an accord, and (2) there
was bias on the part of the trial Judge. Harris and Suburban Propane argue that Pride's suit is barred by res judicata. We
affirm in part and reverse in part.
