Answer: Civil cases usually involve private disputes between persons or organizations. Criminal cases involve an action that is considered to be harmful to society as a whole (hence, these are considered offenses against the "state" or the jurisdiction of the prosecution).

Answer:

Testimonial evidence

Explanation:

Testimonial evidence is evidence provided by people who were in the vicinity of the area where the case was located, and who, under oath, assure that they saw or heard something related to the case.

In the question, we have a typical example of testimonial evidence because a witness is assuring that he saw the defendant in the area that is related to the case, but is not necessarily providing any other type of evidence to support that claim. Whether the testimony is considered truthful or not, or relevant or not, depends on the context of the case, and on the ultimate decision of the jury.
