I remember that case... Not sure if it is the same one.
The chinaman case seemed more recent...

Here's a cut of the court documents. There wasn't a chinaman involved. That was up north. 

In his reconventional demand, Badeaux alleges that the incident described was caused solely by the “negligence and intentional treatment” of Anthony Prestenbach.   Badeaux alleges he was hunting when he was approached by Anthony and Arthur Prestenbach, who cursed at him, threatened him and then chased him, backing him up to the edge of land.   Anthony Prestenbach told his brother Arthur, “If he [Badeaux] runs, shoot him.”   Arthur raised a high powered  rifle, pointed at Badeaux and said, “If you run, I'll shoot you.”   Badeaux alleged that he pleaded with the brothers to stop and to not come any closer, but his pleas went unheeded.   When Badeaux saw Arthur Prestenbach shoulder his rifle, and saw Anthony Prestenbach approach him with hands raised and fists clenched, he raised his own weapon to his side, and without shouldering it, fired several rounds, first at Arthur and then at Anthony Prestenbach.

The Prestenbach petition alleges that Arthur Prestenbach died and Anthony Prestenbach was paralyzed as a result of injuries caused by Badeaux.   In his petition, Badeaux states that charges filed against Badeaux were dismissed by the grand jury.

WESTWEGO, La. (AP) — A deer hunter says he shot two others, killing one of them and critically injuring the other, because one of the two pointed a gun at him during an argument over hunting rights.
Barry Badeaux, 43, told Jefferson Parish sheriff’s deputies that Arthur and Anthony Prestenbach, twins from Marrero, showed up on his hunting lease about 9 a.m. on Dec. 9.
Badeaux said he was in a deer stand, but got out to tell them they were trespassing on his lease, which can be reached only by water. It is a 10-minute boat ride from the Bayou Segnette State Park boat launch.
He told investigators that when one of the brothers pointed a gun at him, he shot Arthur Prestenbach in the chest and shoulder and Anthony Prestenbach in the stomach. He then used his cellular phone to call the sheriff’s office.
Arthur Prestenbach died at the scene. His brother was in critical condition in West Jefferson Medical Center.
No charges had been filed at press time. The investigation is continuing, Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s spokesman Col. John Fortunato said.



From what I can see, the case died out after the homeowner's insurer was dismissed and was eventually dismissed due to abandonment in 2007.

No, a third party, but the shooter was hunting on it with permission.
