Explanation:

One of the major difference between civil lawsuits and criminal lawsuits against perpetrators of frauds is that, in civil lawsuits the main aim of the lawsuits is for the defrauded individual or group to gain financial restitution or payment for damages and the decision is made by the judge while in criminal lawsuits the aim is for the perpetrator to receive due punishment for the offence committed and the decision is made by the jury.
