Land behind my home is for someone else and his right of way is on my driveway. He has two other passages to get to his land. Can the right of way on my land be dissolved?

No... But contact a LA attorney to examine both titles and determine exact easements of record. You might terminate easement, but you will probably be sued.

Has a Deed been executed and recorded with you as the owner or not? If not, then you do not own anything but probably a contractual right, which the seller might try to modify. Just because you have paid out monies does not make you the titled owner. Hire a competent LA attorney for advice.

Without the passing of consideration, there is no contract. There are many reasons that you cannot enforce the alleged contract such as the Statute of Frauds. No Court will entertain such a suit, and it might be a scam against you.
If they can - what would their legal remedy be?

It depends on whether or not your subdivision's governing documents prevent rentals.

A Louisiana attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. Until you speak with a local attorney, many courts nationwide do not look kindly on the idea of waiving liability for injury in general. It could depend on how a waiver was written. Good luck

The title company's job is to clear your title prior to the conveyance. If there is no judgment lien prior to closing, it may not get paid and released. Then the creditor would probably try to collect from your bank.

The Court must determine Title, and apparently it has found another Tenant In Common. There will be further Orders from the Court after the Sale concerning Confirming the Sale, Authorizing the Conveyance, and Disbursing the net proceeds, etc. Apparently all Heirs were not originally joined.
