Civil vs Criminal Law Explained | സിവിൽ കേസും ക്രിമിനൽ കേസും | RKB's Legal Classroom

What exactly is the difference between a civil case and a criminal case? This is a common question, not just for law students, but for the general public as well. In this roughly 25-minute video, we break down the fundamental distinctions between civil and criminal proceedings using a simple, practical illustration. 📌 Key Topics Covered in This Lecture: Nature of the Act: Understanding the difference between a civil wrong (violating an individual's rights) and a crime (an offense against society as a whole). Parties Involved: How civil cases are disputes between private individuals, whereas criminal cases are prosecuted by the State against the accused. Objective of the Courts: The remedial focus of civil courts (providing compensation or restitution) versus the punitive focus of criminal courts (punishing the offender). Standard of Proof: Why civil cases rely on the "preponderance of probabilities" (a 51% threshold), while criminal convictions require proof "beyond a reasonable doubt" (100% certainty). Initiating Proceedings: The process of filing a plaint in a civil court compared to the FIR and police investigation process in criminal law. Settlements & Compromises: The flexibility of out-of-court settlements in civil matters versus the strict limitations on compounding serious criminal offenses. Governing Procedures: An overview of the Civil Procedure Code (CPC) and the newly implemented Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) governing criminal procedure. #LawExplained #CivilVsCriminalLaw #RKBsLegalClassroom #LegalEducation #IndianLaw #LawStudents #BNSS #CriminalProcedure #CivilProcedure #BurdenOfProof
