Civil cases, on the other hand, involve individuals and organizations
seeking to resolve legal disputes. In a criminal case, a state prosecutor initiates the suit, while the victim brings the suit in a civil case.
Persons convicted of a crime may be
incarcerated, fined, or both. However, persons found liable in a
civil case may only have to give up property or pay money, but are
not incarcerated.
