Civil law courts are judicial bodies that handle disputes between individuals or organizations. These courts deal with cases involving issues such as contracts, property, and family matters. The goal is to resolve conflicts and provide compensation or remedies to the affected parties. In civil law systems, the process typically involves filing a complaint, presenting evidence, and receiving a judgment. Unlike criminal courts, which focus on offenses against the state, civil law courts aim to settle private disputes. The outcomes can include monetary damages or specific performance, depending on the case's nature and the applicable laws.
