Well, you can sue anyone for anything, regardless of how ridiculous. But, as a kind of an analogy to this take OJ Simpson. Of course, we all know he did it, but he was found not guilty in criminal court, but he lost big in civil court.
In my state we have a law that says if your self defense claim is upheld in criminal court then you can’t be held civilly liable. It’s too bad Mr. Rittenhouse isn’t afforded that same protection.
