For an event not related to the subject matter of the settlement agreement, and occurring after the execution of the agreement, there should not be any obstacle. Of course, this is analysis and no answering attorney has seen the actual document you signed.
I have a retaliatory and hour and wage case set for trial and my attorney filed without my consent a motion to be relieved can I fight it and what forms
Your question is a bit confusing. The headline says the attorney was granted the motion to be relieved. The question however suggests it is still a pending motion.

I received a default judgement against my former employer which came after they defaulted on an agreement we had as a result of our meeting with the Labor Board. What are my next steps and how likely am I to collect on this? really.
Am I better off trying to sell off my judgement
Unfortunately, procuring a judgment is just the first step in getting paid. You now have to take affirmative measures to force the former employer to pay you the money. This can be costly and time-consuming, and many people get judgments that are never paid.
It is impossible for anyone... Read more »
I filed an action in the Orange County California Superior court in July of 2018 and just got a default judgment against a California LLC from that court for over $80,000.

You can, in some instances, add a person to a judgment as an alterego of the judgment debtor, but this is irregular and not common. The whole point of an LLC (or any corporate form) is Limited Liability. The corporation is liable but the members are, by default, not personally liable for the... Read more »

The maximum sanction that you can ask for is your attorneys fees and costs. If you are pro per, you have no attorneys fees to collect, so you will be limited to "costs."
