Wаlter White hires Jesse Pinkmаn tо pаint his hоuse.  Walter and Jesse enter intо a valid contract where Walter agrees to pay Jesse $2,500 for the job. After completion, Walt believes (in good faith), that the paint job was defective and withholds the payment. He calls Jesse and says “that job you did was not good enough.” Jesse responds “yo yeah it was man. I don’t know what you expect of me. Now show me some respect and pay me or I am calling my lawyer.” Walt says “Jesse, don’t be an idiot. I am going to call my lawyer too!” The parties bicker back and forth for a while. Walt finally says “fine, Jesse. Just listen to me. Instead of suing this out in court, I will offer you $1,000 in full settlement of the claim.” Jesse, accepts, despite that the reasonable value of his services was $2,500. Walt sends a payment in the form of a check to Jesse of $1,000 with the words "in full settlement of the claim" written on the check. Jesse accepts and cashes the check. Jesse then sues Walt for the remaining $1,500. Will Jesse be successful in a lawsuit asking for the remaining $1,500?
