Currently, George Zimmerman is suing Ben Crump (and many others) for purposely using a fake witness against Zimmerman in the Martin case.

If he wins, which he most likely will as it is undeniable if one watches the documentary of the fake witness(The Trayvon Hoax: Unmasking the Witness Fraud that Divided America‬), could Ben Crump still lose his license?

If they settle, will the Bar Association still consider taking away his license?

I'm not familiar with the lawsuit, but generally speaking, a court's finding that a lawyer falsified evidence would not directly result in the lawyer being disbarred, as the trial court does not have authority to regulate the practice of law.

Instead, a court that reached that conclusion -- either by a verdict, or because a judge was persuaded by the evidence without reaching a verdict -- would likely report that outcome to whatever organization is responsible for licensing attorneys in that jurisdiction.
