    If they have such a strong case against you, why would they want to settle for anything less than their 'strong case' could deliver for them?

    Be aware, they are not in the game of offering anyone any favours.

    My guess (but you have to make up your own mind, it is you dealing with them, not me or anyone else on the forum) is that they know they have anything but a 'strong case', and are not wanting to put this in front of a Judge.

    But you have to make your own decision on this.
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.
