Answer: In civil law, there are four broad types of wrongdoings that can be prosecuted: tort, contract, warranty, or family matters. Tort law refers to laws against wronging someone else with negligence and fraud. Warranty issues involve producers or manufacturers who do not back up the guaranteed quality of their product. Contract cases involve two or more parties who have signed contracts which one party breaches. Lastly, any family issues related to divorce, custody, abuse or adoption can also be categorized under civil law.
