Civil Law primarily involves:

• A. Disputes between private parties seeking damages
• B. Criminal prosecutions by the state
• C. Regulation of constitutional rights
• D. International trade agreements

Answer: (A)

Civil law centers on private disputes between individuals or organizations, where the court’s usual remedy is compensation or an order to do or not do something. This covers areas like contracts, torts (such as negligence), property, and family law. It’s distinct from criminal law, where the state prosecutes wrongdoing and seeks punishment, and it isn’t primarily about protecting constitutional rights or handling international trade matters (those belong to constitutional/public law and international/trade law, respectively). So the statement describing civil law as disputes between private parties seeking damages best captures its focus.
