Thank you for your message. If you are eligible to adjust your status in the U.S. and a visa is currently available to you, then your attorney could ask the government to terminate your case so that USCIS can adjudicate your adjustment application. If your husband is a U.S. citizen and you last entered the U.S. legally, then you most likely are eligible to adjust your status without leaving the U.S. Every court handles these cases differently, but in general you would need to file your adjustment application with the court and then request termination.
If you last entered the U.S. illegally or your spouse is a legal resident, then you will need to travel to your home country to get your green card. In that case, the court will grant you voluntary departure so that you can leave the U.S. without a deportation on your record.
Without knowing all of the facts of your case, it is possible that you have other grounds of inadmissibility which would prevent you from getting a green card. I urge you to discuss this matter with your attorney. If you are not satisfied with your attorney's response, then you can seek a second opinion from another attorney.
Good luck,
Mark
