the case was closed and settled.

autos in civil matters means the court file or record..it means the judge is going to rule on the matter. I don't believe it means writ here...

better: the date on which the court ruled on the case.

Los autos here+ the case, the matter before the court in the form of the record of the case..we would say "the case"

neutral Jane Lamb-Ruiz (X) : not necessarily..los autos and un auto are different...los autos is just the case or matter before the court; that was settled. Also, how do you "settle" a writ? :)

the orders were acted upon

dependiendo del país, pero aquí, en EEUU, orders are "issued" (emitidos) y, entonces, "acted upon" (resueltos)
