"I'll suck a fart out of a donkey's ass if it means I'll get up to the surface alive." some wise man said on this board before.
If someone approaches you and assaults you for a working reg, and you safely get them to the surface, I really don't think there will be grounds for a lawsuit. Nitrox isn't by itself dangerous, it just requires education to know the dangers involved in adding floor that's above recreational limits. If the victim oxtox's, well you'll have one less problem to deal with (a panicy diver). Just give them the gas you want them to breathe off of, or put air(or the same mix as your back gas) in your pony bottle since it's not a DECO bottle. Good Samaritan laws protect you so that you will help them, they usually have clauses that punish people who refuse to help.
