I am permanent and stationary disabled, is there a timeframe in which I must settle my case?
my attorney has setup a court date without my input or agreement, I feel I am being forced to agree to a settlement and have been told if I don’t agree to what the other attorney is proposing, then the judge will make the decision for me, I am very concerned and have a great deal of anxiety because of this

You do not state whether this is a workers comp case or is in superior court. Once a settlement conference and trial are scheduled in superior court, you must make a deicison on whether to settle or go to trial and let the Judge or Jury decide how much you should get.
