You can pay what is owed to them. Or you can file bankruptcy. Or you can answer their complaint and take it to Court. Once in Court, you can ask the judge to dismiss the complaint, but that is unlikely to happen. Your best response is to take the matter to an attorney who specializes in credit issues like yours.

Can a lawsuit settlement be taken after bankruptcy discharge?

If the debtor has a lawsuit for damages AGAINST a person, that lawsuit becomes part of the BK and the BK trustee would have the power to settle/go to trial and keep any judgment for distribution to creditors.
