Answer
You dont really give enough information to answer your question. If you filed a wrongful death action and lost against one party, you likely no longer can file another one. If the employer paid worker's compensation, they would be immune from any wrongful death action. Your reference to not guilty seems to imply that a criminal matter was pursued? If so, then the civil side can be pursued if the 2 year statute of limitations has not run.
