Are you asking if a civil suit requires a specific assertion of motive like you hear about in criminal investigations? No, . . . just acts, a requisite level of purpose or knowledge, and damage to the plaintiff.
If you are asking more informally, will Gruden have to prove some negligent or intentional act of the defendant to prevail at trial. Likely, but the form and nature will depend on the complaint alleged, and doesn't have to be proven until said trial.
