So, to translate for those who do not have the time or patience to wade through the many words used by Downsideup:
A settlement is a compromise unlikely to be as profitable as a maximum recovery at trial. Sale of the properties are unlikely, but may have been sought by defendants as a strategy to produce a lower settlement payment or trial outcome, or it may not. Sale of properties might produce a good price, or it might not. The judge might stop this sale, but order a sale in the future.
Everyone understand now? It is really deep.
