Explanation:

- Champerty is when someone funds another person’s lawsuit in exchange for a share of the proceeds. This can be seen in A paying B for a cut of the suit proceeds.

Your Answer is Right

- Stifling with Prosecution refers to agreements or practices that suppress legitimate legal proceedings or lead to the non-prosecution of a crime. This does not apply here.

- Maintenance involves a third party providing assistance to a litigant without any share in the lawsuit proceeds, unlike champerty which involves profit sharing.

- Interfere with course of justice is a broader concept that involves actions disrupting or obstructing judicial processes. This situation specifically deals with profit sharing from a lawsuit, making champerty the correct term.
