    From Menzo B@21:1/5 to All on Tue Oct 3 12:57:56 2023
    What are the key differences between civil law and criminal law, and how
    do they impact the proceedings and outcomes in legal cases?

    IANAL but I can't resist - go to Law School - get a Degree - pass the Bar.

    You appear to be confusing civil law and civil wrongs. Criminal
