I believe you are correct, but the civil suit will see all of the violent, unhinged mentally ill madman's actions and see a thug with a rap sheet a mile long who was determined to attack innocent passengers. The criminal case would not allow in past criminal info, but they will be able to enter the fact he was found not guilty by a jury of his peers.I think the civil suit can proceed even if found innocent.
OJ Simpson was found not guilty of murder, but lost almost everything to the family of one of the murder victims in a civil suit.
Civil cases are different from criminal court where the criminal trials require 12 jurors to convict where the civil cases only require a majority from the jury to win.
Hope I'm wrong, he's been through enough.
It (civil suit) may not be so easy! and I would think that Penny can counter sue the family for damages it they lose. I would suggest suing the families attorney also!
