Wow!!!!!!
Parties might be able to enjoy a decent amount of flexibility in terms of settling some of the matters involving payments to each other, including attornies' fees and damages and perhaps even the construction of statements regarding the extent to which they agree (or not) that the fraudster is satoshi... however, the sanctions matter would remain something that is of public concern, and I doubt that any agreement between the parties would have much, if any, affect upon the court's deliberations on those kinds of public concerns, so getting any potential sanctions leniency would be a matter regarding how persuasive the fraudster's attorney is able to be in presenting the fraudster's various defenses and justifications to present facts and argue logic (maybe asking for mercy or forgiveness) for why that diptwat should not be sanctioned with severe consequences.
The biggest sanctions are that the court has publicly voiced that Dr Wright intentionally submitted fraudulent documents to the court, obstructed a judicial proceeding, and gave perjurious testimony.
My opinion:
He has effectively forgone his ability to present evidence and now has zero credibility in court. It now is only a matter of how much it will cost him.
Any time he lies in the process just gives the plaintiffs the ability to re-litigate any settlement. CSW lying is a gift that just keeps on giving to them.
For the plaintiff - the only part they have to gain by negotiations is the ease of getting an actual settlement without having to chase the payment through various jurisdictions and getting physical possession.
For CSW - his liberty and all his (and those in trusts) worldly possessions are potentially on the line.
Good point to indicate that it is quite likely that abilities to submit evidence about the already determinations resubmitting fraud docs, obstructing proceedings and proving perjurious testimony would be limited, yet there should still be various appeal processes - and courts frequently will error on the side of making sure that parties are allowed to provide evidence and arguments (which surely, like you suggested, might not take them very far, but still CSW likely still has those kinds of rights).
Regarding liberty, he might not want to show up. Regarding assets, I am sure that he already has attempted to employ a fairly aloof system of hiding assets, to the extent that he has any that are actually owned outright.
