A settlement "could" happen and it could end early. The judge throwing it out though? Very improbable. That would be the judge "making a decision" based on the merits in the case. And that is trials are established up to do, not opening motions. he can agree with certain things and disagree with others, but I see no way a judge could throw it out entirely. He should just say what can and can't happen with the various motions and disclosure, and then allow the TRIAL to determine if the claims are valid or not.
Everyone is due their day in court, and even if they lose, they lose in court, not in the motions stage. IMIO
