TFA is a bout civil immunity though, not criminal immunity.

The first paragraph talks about the board of TWC allegedly knowing about Weinstein paying off people accusing him. One could make the argument that not acting on this knowledge to protect the value of the is an abrogation of their duties as board members.

However the board was granted immunity in Chapter 11, so no such arguments can be advanced in court now.
