I think an important and large part of the ZG lawsuit per Munyon's recent ruling will stem around the idea of whether or not CA was acting as an agent for FCA when she spoke to the media after the July 25 2008 jail interview.
Here is a snip from Judge Munyon's order p. 3 talking about the July 25 jail interview where FCA makes the "that girl down in Kissimmee" statement::

..Likewise, whether Cindy Anthony published the statement as an agent of the defendant or without the defendant's express authority is a disputed matter for jury determination.

Here is what CA said in her deposition about this matter, p. 78, starting line 20:

Q. I understand. That's what I'm getting at. So when you were talking to Casey in jail there earlier in the day I think you asked her if she had any messages for Zanny. Do you remember that? And she --
A. I remember at some point. Whether or not that was that particular one, I don't know.
Q. So it's fair to say that she was giving you the authority to speak for her by passing along messages and stuff?
A. Correct.
Q. So when -- when you were talking to the media you were talking on your daughter's behalf for the idea --
A. Correct.
Q. -- to try to find Caylee? You're speaking for her; is that right?
A. Correct (bbm)
so at least in CA's mind, FCA gave her the "authority to speak for her". Now, if FCA either cannot be served and does not show up, or shows up and takes the 5th and does not answer any questions, all they will have is CA saying YES, she was speaking for FCA (but I can see FCA stop invoking the 5th should she be there and just answering this question: was your mother CA acting as your agent when she spoke for you, etc., etc., etc., " with a "no". But, you will then have a liar contradicting a perjurer, IMO, go figure,)
but in any event, I am glad this will be up to a jury to decide. CA will be asked this question and if she answers differently from her above answer in her depo at trial, she can be impeached with her answers during the deposition, but I can see her in her rambling-CA-style going with the
"it was my meds" or as during the criminal trial "I can remember now better than 3 years ago", etc., etc., etc., :banghead:
and since FCA is a proven and convicted liar, I think ZG has a good chance with a jury on this portion of the testimony, anyway. I hope ZG is ready for Greene to try to shred her to bits, but I think she will stand strong for that.
IMO, MOO, etc. :moo:
