- GavinMcG 5y agoYes, where the context is a settlement offer. You'll notice it refers to a "claim for damages", i.e. the claim that would be made in court, but will not be if settled instead. In the headline, on the other hand, there's no context at all to suggest a settlement, which is why the commenter called it misleading.
