Difficult to make a determination. Most (all?) courts use their own form of abbreviations and legalese shorthand when making notes on their files, and they are NOT standard throughout the entire criminal justice system. Best thing to do would be to call the Officer of the Clerk of The Court and ask someone there what it might mean.

What must be resolve first in a case is it the criminal aspect or the civil aspect?
If there are, in fact, both a criminal and a civil side to the incident, the criminal aspect will be handled first. The "state's" (i.e.: the "people's") interests in prosecuting a crime take precedence over the civil wrong against an individual. (Think the O.J. Simpson case.) Traditionally, the criminal matter will be decided first. This is primarily because proceeding with the civil case can prejudice a criminal defendant's rights. The civil case will wind up stalled because the criminal defendant can refuse to comply with civil discovery by asserting the right to remain silent. Admissions or statements given in a civil case could be employed against the criminal defendant. As a practical matter the civil case cannot proceed until there is a resolution of the criminal matter. For further information see the related links below.
