Survival is step one. We’re step two.
Can you be sued even if you were never arrested or charged? Can someone file a lawsuit against you after police determine your shooting was justified? And does Texas law actually protect you from civil liability after a lawful act of self-defense?
Armed Attorneys Richard Hayes and Emily Taylor break down one of the most frequently asked questions surrounding self-defense: what happens after the criminal investigation is over—but someone decides to sue you anyway?
In this episode, we discuss Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Chapter 83, the civil immunity available for justified uses of force and deadly force, and why having immunity does not necessarily mean you can simply ignore a lawsuit. We also examine the potential cost of defending a civil case, how statements made to police could later become evidence, and how long after a self-defense incident a lawsuit might still be filed.
If you carry a firearm for self-defense, understanding the difference between criminal justification and civil liability is critical. Being cleared by police may not necessarily be the end of the legal process.
