The first alternative is correct (A).

The charge of a crime is part of the criminal order, that is, the respondent responds according to the criminal law. For example, murder.

This is a differentiation of the legal order, which involves several spheres, each with its complexity. Crimes are tried by the law of crimes, just as cases of civil laws deal with conflicts between people, such as commercial disagreements.

The correct answer is "criminal law" - answer a. It's a kind of law that deals with crime.

by the way, the terms "civil law" and "civilian law" are synonymous- and the term "civil law" is the more usual one.

Also, "critical" law is not really a kind of law, expect for a critical analysis of law.
