Righting a project requires figuring out what the root of the problem is. A stakeholder demanding an unfeasible requirement may seem like the problem, but it could be deeper such as beaurocratic reasons or not having the tools / resources to pursue the right requirement. In the end you need to reset these issues to enable yourself to take a different path than the death march.

A recent project of mine was put on hold due to changing requirements and lack of focus. we waited for the client to bring the right people to the table. Then we redrafted all governing documents and got them reapproved, sometimes by new individuals. We made sure from the restart we had a feasible project with well defined goals.
