Fortunately, all indications are that our insurance will pick up the bill for our defense so that it should not fall back on the viewers and supporters of the ministry.

Wonder if that is really true.

1)  Defense costs are often unlimited, if the coverage is provided and if the insurance company is in charge of the defense.  IOW the insurance company does not pay legal costs that they did in incur.  e.g. is 3-ABN goes on its own, it is responsible for those costs.


2) Monetary costs may have a deductable, co-pay and/or a limit on the amount paid.

It gets a little confusing.

Are there two lawsuits involving 3ABN and Alex Walker?

Two. One by Alex against Tommy and 3ABN, and another by 3ABN's insurance company against Tommy, 3ABN, and Alex.

So is the current lawsuit of Alex against Tommy Shelton and 3ABN a criminal or civil one?

Being that Tommy is already in prison.

Civil

Alex, as a private citizen cannot initate a criminal lawsuit agains anyone.  Criminal actions can only be initated by a governmental agen authorized to do so, or is unusual circumstances by a private citizen who has been given special poweres to do so.

I take it that the lawsuit that put Tommy Shelton in prison was a criminal one, then.

Was it instigated by the government?

TS Went to prison based upon criminal charges that were filed against him by a government official.  Most people would not cal that a lawsuit, but you can if you wish.

NOTE:  I am well aware fo the process that included a Grand Jury, I believe.

Grand jury
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search

A grand jury is a type of jury that determines whether a criminal indictment will be issued. Currently, only the United States retains grand juries, although some other common law jurisdictions formerly employed them, and most other jurisdictions employ some other type of preliminary hearing. In Ireland, they also functioned as local government authorities.

A grand jury is so named because it has a greater number of jurors than a trial jury (also known as a petit jury, from the French for small).
