To cut your loses or push forward in court?

Good day all,

I am on a train going home, and I’m tossing around in my head between these outcomes. I received an email from the court today

Short version: contractor broke roof, offers 14 of the cost to fix it. Has 3 kids and basic income and I’m tired of chasing this. Do I keep going in court or let it be at 14 minus admin fee which I paid.
