In Civil Cases, reason being the judge cannot order imprisonment in a civil case, unless someone is in contempt of court. Contempt of court includes not following a court order, or failing to show the proper respect for a judge or for court rules within the case

Hiya!
The answer would be Criminal cases.
Criminal cases because...
Civil is not about being guilty or innocent, its about culpability and liability. If a person is found not guilty in criminal court, they can still be sued in civil court.
Good-Luck! c:
