A more thorough explanation: In a legal context, the term “civil” refers to matters that involve private rights and remedies, as opposed to criminal matters. Civil law deals with disputes between individuals, organizations, or entities, typically seeking monetary damages or specific performance rather than criminal penalties.
Example: In a civil lawsuit, the plaintiff is seeking damages for breach of contract.
