Illinois Appellate Court
Civil Court
Mortgages
Lender released and discharged a third co-borrower as to mortgages secured by property of the third co-borrower. Intent of parties to release and language of release that controls its scope and effect. Release of one co-borrower, in absence of reservation of rights, does not necessarily release all other joint and several co-borrowers. (PUCINSKI and LAVIN, concurring.)
