Yes, you would need to pay U.S. taxes as a tax resident of the United States if you make $95K and up. For green card holders, tax residency begins on the first day the person is present in the United States as a green card holder and does not end until lawful permanent resident status has been formally abandoned.You must file Form 1040 as a resident alien, you cannot use 1040NR. You may use Form 2555 (Foreign Earned Income Exclusion) and Form 1116 (Foreign Tax Credit) to reduce your tax liability in case you stay outside US and work according to treaties.

Can a civil lawsuit hurt a green card holder?

As a green card holder you are legally a bound to the laws of that country you are residing in. For example if you vomit murder in the USA you are bound to the US laws. A green card means you are legally aloud to work and live in that country but also you have to pay taxes and abide to that countries laws. So just because someone is a green card holder doesn't mean he will be prosecuted differently. It cold hurt someone though if that persona tries to file for citizenship of that country.
