Suing a store for selling you faulty items, suing someone for copying your work (copyright), and suing someone for owning something that broke a part of your body, like if you're a Basketball player, you trip on your neighbor's dog on your way to the tournament and you break your wrist and can't play.
Civil law is the part of a country's set of laws which is concerned with the private affairs of citizens, such as marriage and divorce, probate, property ownership, suing for car injuries, suing your neighbor for a dog bite, debt collection, torts and equity suits rather than crime.
like when two people get a divorce.

Disputes of a noncriminal nature between two or more parties, either individuals or businesses are the basis of civil law. Civil law is generally applied in one of three areas: contracts, property, and torts.
An example of civil law based on the branch of torts is:
During a Golf game, Royce carelessly strikes Silvera with a golf club and injures him. Royce has committed a tort. A civil court will probably order Royce to pay monetary damages to Silvera.
A civil case is any type of case where one is not facing criminal penalties for an offense. When you are being sued it's a civil case. Other civil cases include divorce, incompetency, involuntary mental health or substance abuse evaluation or treatment, or domestic abuse injunctions/restraining orders. Many of these civil cases can turn into criminal cases if one is held in contempt of court for failure to follow a judge's order.
A civil law suit is one that an individual would bring (as opposed to the police who prosecute under criminal law). For instance if you purchased faulty goods from an shop and they would not replace them or give you you money back you could take them to court to make them pay. This would be a civil case.
Examples of civil law include contract disputes, property disputes, family law matters such as divorce and child custody, personal injury cases, and issues related to wills and inheritance.
anything that doesnt involve criminal cases
eg tort laws
Any Tort really. False imprisonment, negligent infliction of emotional distress.
Some examples of civil matters include contract disputes, property disputes, personal injury lawsuits, family law issues such as divorce or child custody, and disputes over wills or estates.
Specific examples of criminal law include murder, theft, and assault, which are offenses against the state and can result in punishment such as imprisonment. Civil law examples include contract disputes, personal injury cases, and property disputes, which involve resolving conflicts between individuals or entities through compensation or equitable remedies.
Examples of remedial law include civil procedure, criminal procedure, evidence law, and rules governing injunctions and other equitable remedies. These laws provide the framework for resolving disputes in court and ensuring that justice is served through legal norms and procedures.
Tort law is a subset of civil law that specifically deals with civil wrongs that result in harm, injury, or loss to another person. Civil law, on the other hand, covers a broader range of legal issues beyond just torts, such as contracts, property, and family law. So while all tort law is considered civil law, not all civil law pertains to torts.
No, civil law is primarily concerned with resolving disputes between individuals or entities regarding non-criminal matters such as contracts, property, and family issues. While intent may be relevant in some civil cases, it is not the primary focus of civil law.
Examples of residual powers are those regarding civil law, urban planning, property issues, etc.

None. Civil law is civil law. Criminal law is criminal law. They do not intersect. Some crimes have civil and criminal punishments though. A very common example is assault, which is a criminal charge. You can also be held liable under civil law for battery. Other examples are as follows: Copyright infringement laws: If you illegally reproduce copyrighted materials, you can be charged under criminal law (not necessarily imprisonment, but a sentence under criminal law). The company who owns the copyright may also sue you in civil court. Drunk driving: If you drive drunk and hit a person, they sue you (civil law), and you will receive DUI charges.
