No Chance

While I agree 100% and affirm that I have been in exactly the same position as you, the chances of getting civil service joint and several liability through the civil service are considerably less than zero. They have been immune from prosecution for anything they do wrong, in any sphere, since time immemorial and are never, ever going to give that up. They are certainly never going to do it to themselves!
