"After she was married, Sherri Mitchell, a young woman 17 years of age, was in an automobile accident in which she was hurt enough to require medical treatment. She was later approached by an insurance agent who offered her $2,500 as a settlement. All she had to do was sign a release that would absolve the insurance company of any complaint that she might have against it in regard to the accident. She agreed to accept the $2,500 and signed a release to that effect; however, she then changed her mind and decided to void the agreement. She argued that since she was 17 at the time she signed the release, she was a minor and could therefore void the contract. Is Mitchell correct? Explain. [See: Mitchell v. State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Co., 963 S.W.2d (Ky. Ct. App.).]"
