Since the Martins, Inc. and Sharpton and Associates found a DA who was willing to indict Zimmerman, it will be much harder to find against them in civil court.
Brawley's story was so ridiculous on its face that a New York grand jury - which would classically indict a "ham sandwich" - laughed her accusations out of court.
Nothing actually happened to Brawley.
Martin actually was shot and killed.
Different circumstances.

Actually...wrong
Since the lies told by the Martins, Sharpton, and any other non-governmental person led to the false arrest and prosecution of George Zimmerman...they are not immune from civil damages. And, the State Attorney and LEO are only immune from civil actions other than Civil Rights violations
The FACT of the Zimmerman case is that Trayvon Martin attacked George Zimmerman, and Zimmerman shot in self-defense. This is pretty much apparent now as the media (even here locally) has really divested itself from the case
The NBC lawsuit is just the beginning for Zimmerman to clear his name, and to punish those who committed this fraud. Sharpton, The Martin family, Ben Crump, and others involved are not immune from any civil action, nor will be held to any higher standard of liability, just because some State Atty (forced by the Gov and AG when the local SA did not prosecute) decided to prosecute criminally.
