Later you willlearn how this diIfercnce is reflected in tlle termino!ogy and
procedure of the law, but firstlellis look at an example of bolll criminal anei
civil law.
r
First, the ci\~U Imv. ExaJllp1cs of this incllH.le the law of contract, tort
(literally meaning 'wrong') and propcrly. Consider the following siluation.
You decide to buy a radio frol11 a local shop. YOl! pay tlle correct price
and take t!le radio away. You have entered into a contracl with the owner
of tlle shor. After two days the r8dio fails to work.
This is a COIl11110n sifu:ltioll :llld lIslI:tlly Ilie slJopkecper \ViII rcpl:lce thr

to lhe action will be you (an individual) and the owner of the shop (an
individual person or body).
Now let liS look at SOllle examr.1es of the crirninallaw.-Tllis is lhe law by
which the state regulates lhe condllct of its citizens. Criminal offclIccs rang.e
[rom the petty~'i (c.g. parkillg offcllccs) to the very scrious (e.g. murder,
rape). Look at the following situntion.
You arc drivillg your cm at 70 llI.p.I1.~o in ali arca which has a speed limit
of 40 in.p.h. You are stopped by a police officer anei subsequcntly a case is
brougllt against you for dangerolls drivilJg.
