civil proceedings

Civil proceedings are legal processes used to resolve disputes between individuals, businesses, or organizations. These disputes can involve issues like property, contracts, injuries, or other private matters. The process typically starts when one party files a complaint against the other, and both sides present evidence and arguments in court. A judge or jury then decides who is right and may order remedies such as compensation or specific actions. Civil proceedings are designed to provide a fair way to settle disagreements without involving criminal charges, focusing on compensating the harmed party or resolving private disputes.
