If there is no disagreement as to the validity of the settlement agreement,
bring a motion to enforce pursuant to CR 2A under the old cause number. You
may have to incorporate a motion to re-open the case.

If the case was dismissed, I think this is a whole new action based on
breach of the settlement contract. Would need a new case number and a new
lis pendens.
I don't know if it's even possible to undo a dismissal? I guess that would
be, maybe, a motion to vacate the order of dismissal under CR 59, or motion
to vacate under CR 60? If it can be shoehorned into the grounds under either
of those rules...
Sincerely,
Eric

Real estate action resulted in a settlement wherein one party was to buy the
other party's rental home; dismissal of the action was conditioned on
dismissal of the action before sale was completed; of course, seller
breached, essentially reneging, after dismissal of the lawsuit and lis
pendens. Can the lawsuit re reinstituted under old cause number? What
process?
Is it legal to file lis pendens based on the dismissed lawsuit? We suspect
seller has some nefarious activity up his sleeve.
