a doctor, Dina accepts $50,000 from Eagle and waives the right to future claims. Frank’s diagnosis later proves to have been wrong. According to the reasoning of the court in Case 10.1, Roberts v. Century Contractors, Inc., Frank’s misdiagnosis is, in terms of its impact on Dina’s agreement with Eagle,

a mutual mistake of fact.
a unilateral mistake of fact.
fraudulent misrepresentation.
nonfraudulent misrepresentation.

I would assume the second one, however, we would need to read the case cited above.
