The laws in an awful lot of (probably most) states have changed to disallow civil liability lawsuits in cases where the plaintiff was committing a felony at the time. <br /><br />Those "burglar fell through the skylight and successfully sued" stories were quite true, I've seen a couple dozen. <br /><br />Legally speaking, in that regard it's gotten pretty tough out there for felons.<br /><br />So no, in most states the lawsuit would be a non-starter.<br /><br />I don't know why I just made such a big deal about that, but now it's in your brain cells so you're stuck with it.<br /><br />(Grumpy: "Ha ha, no it's not!
