According to Eastern District of Texas, Texarkana Division court documents, Lynette Faulkner filed a wrongful death lawsuit against J.D. & Billy Hines Trucking Inc. and Charles Gwin on April 20. Faulkner filed the lawsuit individually and as the administrator of the estate of Timothy Alan Faulkner, who died in a truck accident on February 21.
