What matters are typically dealt with by Civil Courts?

Civil courts primarily handle disputes that arise between individuals and organizations, such as contractual disputes, property disputes, family law matters, and other non-criminal issues. This is why the matter typically dealt with by civil courts involves resolving conflicts or claims for damages rather than dealing with criminal law, which is the jurisdiction of criminal courts.

The first choice reflects the core function of civil courts in addressing the rights and obligations of individuals and organizations in a non-criminal context. The other options each pertain to criminal law or legal procedures related to law enforcement and are thus outside the scope of civil court jurisdiction. For instance, infractions under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act and issues pertaining to the Ontario Trespass to Properties Act involve violations of criminal law, which are adjudicated in criminal courts. Similarly, arrest procedures between an arresting officer and an accused relate to law enforcement practices and legal standards that are also not managed by civil courts.
