COOK, J.
This court must decide whether a party to a settlement agreement who becomes obligated thereby to perform, can insist that the obligee accept such performance despite the filing of a satisfaction of judgment. We hold that unless the language employed in the agreed judgment incorporating a settlement specifically requires the obligee to accept the obligor's performance, the obligee need not accept the performance, but need only conclude the litigation.
