OPINION
GARBARINO, Judge.
¶ 1 We hold that a defendant who is jointly and severally liable for an intentional tort with a co-tortfeasor is entitled to have an adverse judgment reduced by the amount of any settlement reached with the settling co-tortfeasor. Because the trial court interpreted Arizona's version of the Uniform Contribution Among Tortfeasors Act (UCATA) to the contrary, we reverse in part.
