⚖️ Answer: Civil = Rights 👩‍⚖️ | Criminal = Wrongs 🚓
Let’s break it down for you, courtroom-style 🎬👇
🧾 Civil Case – Disputes between individuals or organisations over rights, property, money, contracts, etc.
Example: Property disputes, breach of contract, divorce, or recovery of money.
👉 The aim? Compensation or relief. Not punishment. 💰

Example: Murder, theft, assault, cybercrime, fraud.
👉 The aim? Punishment such as jail, fines, or both. 🚔
