I was hoping some of the others on the forum who are much more astute in their knowledge of the laws would jump in and answer this part of your question. It's certainly beyond my limited knowledge. I know just enough to hopefully keep my mouth shut until my lawyer gets on board and knows what to say and more importantly what not to say.

I'm sure you'll hear more discussion of it to follow, but I believe there is a law precluding civil action against a justified user of deadly force in the Castle Doctrine section of the Texas law. I don't think I need to say IANAL but just in case...I'm not. Case law might be hard to find when cases involving a perp's family suing a justified defender of his family, property and life is not allowed to begin with.
