If you owe someone $100, and they renounce this claim in writing (ie. write specifically that they no longer want the money back), can they still come back and claim it after all one month later?

If the writing was by email, would this still be equally valid?

I have kept the email obviously.

Generally not unless their "renunciation" is supported by consideration; ie, some benefit to themselves or some detriment or waiver to the relieved party.

People can do what they want. The better question is if they would win in small-claims court, and that depends on the specifics of the situation.

Women have "sold" their children (They call it adoption) sighed away there parental rights and later (For more Money) got the child back. Papers not mean anything today, it all up to the judge and how much he get from the winner in his pocket.

No, if they signed such a waiver, it is binding. Ideally, they would have signed and dated the waiver.
