Question 1

A major difference between a tort case and a criminal case is that ________.&#10;A)Only in tort cases are defendants guaranteed the right to counsel.&#10;B)The standard of proof in most tort cases is preponderance of the evidence, whereas in criminal cases it is beyond a reasonable doubt.&#10;C)Jury verdicts must be unanimous only in tort cases.

Accepted Answer

The standard of proof is a key difference between tort and criminal cases. In tort cases, the plaintiff must prove their case by a preponderance of the evidence, meaning it is more likely than not that what they claim is true. In criminal cases, the prosecution must prove the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, a much higher standard.
