Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Michigan

Plantiff filed suit against two individuals years ago costing several hundred thousand dollars in legal expenses. Both parties agreed with case evaluation that found claims lacked merit because they were not supported by evidence and against the other defendant they found a no cause for claim and that legal reasons for adding defendant were extremely flimsy at best. Plantiff's attorney has ignored request by Def.'s attorney to sign documents showing that they agree there is no cause for claim against Def.'s. If they're refusing to sign final documents so Plantiff can protect his properties by aquiring Loans using them as collatoral to protect his property in case of a counter suit by Defendants. What would the court do in a case like this? Should we file suit immediately or wait for the final signature's regarding case evaluation. If no response from Plantiffs Attorney can we expect the Judge to step in and demand closure on this case? Case Evaluation was almost 5 months ago. Thank you for reviewing my question.

If all parties agreed to the case evaluation result, your attorney can file a motion with the court to have a judgment entered. At that point, the case will be over unless there's an appeal.
