What is the difference between burden of proof and standard of proof?

Burden of proof is who has to prove the case by meeting or exceeding the standard of proof. In a criminal case, it's the prosecution. In a civil case, it's the plaintiff. Standard of proof is the unquantifiable amount of proof that must be shown. In criminal cases, it's beyond a reasonable doubt. In civil cases, it's a preponderance of the evidence.

What is the standard of proof required for criminal and civil law?

Preponderance of the evidence, also known as balance of probabilities is the standard required in most civil cases. The standard is met if the proposition is more likely to be true than not true. Effectively, the standard is satisfied if there is greater than 50 percent chance that the proposition is true. Lord Denning, in Miller v. Minister of Pensions [1947] 2 All ER 372, described it simply as "more probable than not."


What is the burden of proof in most civil cases?

Unlike a criminal case which requires "beyond a reasonable doubt," a civil case only requires a "preponderance of the evidence. " This is a much lower standard; the plaintiff must only prove their case to about 51 percent certainty.
