"B" lawsuit is a civil case. In some states some traffic violations are considered "Civil Infractions", but are still heard in the same setting as a criminal case.

John U

Kidnapping, shoplifting and traffic violations are all covered under a punishable statute. A lawsuit is a civil case. One can be sued in civil court for the other three while at the outset a lawsuit is always a civil not a criminal case.

B. Lawsuit

STEVEN F

ALL of the above.
A lawsuit nearly ALWAYS means a civil lawsuit. A kidnapping victim could sue the kidnappers for civil damages, particularly if they were injured. For shoplifting, the value of the stolen items supply a claim for civil damages. Most jurisdictions treat traffic violations a civil infraction.
