A civil investigation is an investigation related to a civil matter. A civil matter is a court action (or pending court action) that is not criminal in nature. An investigation related to the care of a child is a civil investigation if the opposing parent is trying to prove that their ex-spouse is not taking good care of the child. A criminal investigation would be if the police were investigating a complaint of child abuse which resulted in the harm, or potential harm, of the child. To put it simply, a civil investigation is any investigation that is not an investigation of a crime.
The root word for suspend is pend, as in to pend a transaction. If a transaction is pending, or patent pending. It means that something is active. For something to be suspended means the future of it is undecided. For instance, a suspension from a club will mean you are unable to attend club meetings or events until a decision is made as to your allowance to continue your membership or otherwise. A boat being suspended from a crane would be hanging, with no decision having been made as to whether the boat will be lowered, raised, landed, or released to water.
Yes, I've just been suspended pending further investigation.
