Key legal question
How should the appendix to the settlement agreement be construed: as acknowledged commission claims or as expense reimbursement claims requiring supporting invoices?
Extracted holding
The appendix contained acknowledged commission claims agreed upon by the parties; payment depended only on the stated due dates.
Extracted reasoning
The lower court had determined the parties' actual common intent. The Federal Supreme Court was bound by that factual finding absent a properly raised arbitrariness challenge and therefore accepted the appendix as listing settled commission claims.
