What I would do is negotiate with... Read more »

Mr. Gribow and Mr. Karas both provided good answers to this question the first time you posted it, a day ago. You are not clear what the problem is.

Does this mean that if I pay the amount asked then they will dismiss the claim or case? Or will I still have to appear in court for the case?
If you pay them they will dismiss the case or tell the Court on the date of trial that it settled. Usually you get a settlement agreement signed by all in advance of sending any money, to protect yourself.
