Answer:plaintiff; preponderance of evidence

Step-by-step explanation:

When a plaintiff provides evidence against a defendant it has to have a major weight in civil lawsuit inorder for a defendant to be found guilt of a suspected crime. Preponderance refers to how convincing the evidence is and how truthful it is against the other party, so it about the weight of the evidence not the amount of evidence presented and how accurate that evidence is.
