The use of the word "deadline" is puzzling. A "deadline" imposed by WHO?
The parties themselves? The court? The answer depends on the format under which the "settlement" procedure was constructed.
If no court case was ever filed, it would require the filing of the action in court and going through the legal procedures of reaching an adjudicated conclusion.
If a court case had been underway, and part of the agreement for dropping the case was that a mutually agreeable accord be concluded, it may be possible to re-activate the lawsuit at the point at which it was abandoned on the grounds that agreement had been abbrogated by one of the parties.
If the court had set the deadline and the participants had not met the court ordered date, a motion of contempt could be filed with court.
If an attorney protecting your interest is involved, consult with them for particulars which apply to your specific case.
