Do you have the right to take someone to court even if the DA decides not to press charges against that person?

If there are no charges, there is nothing that can be done criminally. You always have the choice of taking the person to civil court and suing them for damages. This can be done even if they have charges. In the case of OJ Simpson, the jury found him not guilty, but in civil court, they family won a wrongful death case.
