I don't think it will affect your eligibility after you get a PER. The only flip side is that you'd be charged for Processing Fee by then (if you're fortunate !!) for two $1100 which is non refundable. & you will have some spare money as your requirement for Settlement funds will come down by ~ 5 grands.
But, you need to wait till you get official copy from court and then you can inform VO, if you get PER. This is the standard comment in PER letter- excerpt below:
{Please inform the visa office of any changes in your application (e.g. birth or adoption of a child, marriage or common-law relationship, new occupation or employer, submission of an Arranged Employment Opinion approved by Human Resources and Skills Development Canada, change of address, change of e-mail address, change of immigration representative, etc). Please include a letter identifying what the changes are and any relevant supporting documents. }
