Civil
Civil legal definition: Generally, Civil pertains to disputes not involving crimes, such as family matters, contracts, collection of debts, and compensation for personal injury or property loss. Unlike criminal cases, which look to punish the wrongdoer for a crime, civil cases are meant to compensate the harmed party, generally in the form of monetary damages paid from the defendant to the plaintiff.
