Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

o All law can be divided into two categories, civil law and criminal law.
o They are distinguished by their goals.
The criminal justice system is concerned with protecting society from harm by preventing and prosecuting crimes. The government is responsible for
prosecuting a person who commits a criminal act. The accused person is the
o party who responds. The standard of proof is beyond a reasonable doubt and the remedy available to the victim is punishment of the offender, through a fine, incarceration, or probation.
Civil law, which includes all types of law other than criminal law, is concerned
o with disputes between private individuals and between entities.
Civil lawsuits are initiated by an individual or corporation who is injured by a private wrong. These individuals are called plaintiffs. The party who responds is
o the person who caused the alleged harm. The standard of proof in a civil case is preponderance of the evidence. The remedy is usually financial compensation for the harm caused to the plaintiff.
