O'Mara, Zimmerman's attorney, has said they will get immunity from any civil cases brought against Zimmerman. Probably based on *stand your ground* law. So if the Martin's want to sue Zimmerman after Zimmerman has settled with Florida and NBC it won't do them any good.

I hadn't considered that aspect of the case. No wonder his lawyer was looking so cheerful on the TV news today - Christmas has come early. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Mike Dixon wrote:>> George Zimmerman will always be a *marked* man but he could also become a very wealthy man in the near future. Florida has strong laws against being charged with a crime without the evidence to support a conviction. That is why he wasn't charged in the first place. He has an excellent case against the state of Florida. He also has a strong case against NBC for editing his 911 call that made him look like he brought up the issue of *race* in his call. The idea, to make Zimmerman look as if he was a racist. That would show malice, strengthening a manslaughter case. Florida and NBC will probably want to settle out of court, making Zimmerman very wealthy and able to live anywhere he wants. >
