If you are asking the differences between the two, it is pretty much straightforward.

Current Liabilities are any liabilities that you owe and you can reasonably pay off in one-year or less (or one accounting cycle) OR LESS

Non-Current (aka Long-Term) Liabilities are liabilities that you cannot or do not expect to pay off in one year (accounting cycle), such as a Long Term Mortgage or Truck Note for examples.
