Civil law---the system of law concerned with private relations between members of a community rather than criminal, military, or religious affairs.
 criminal law---a system of law prating to those whom have broken the law.
What we call criminal law broadly refers to federal and state laws that make certain behavior illegal and punishable by imprisonment and/or fines. Our legal system is largely comprised of two different types of cases: civil and criminal. Civil cases are disputes between people regarding the legal duties and responsibilities they owe each other. Criminal cases, meanwhile, are charges pursued by prosecutors for violations of criminal statutes.
