There are two types of lawsuits: civil and criminal. When someone is charged with a crime and then prosecuted by the government, this is a criminal lawsuit. Other types of suits are civil lawsuits.
A civil action filed in a limited jurisdiction court is a claim against another party for damages of an amount up to $10,000.00. These lawsuits are designed to resolve civil disputes before a justice of the peace. Parties in a civil lawsuit may be represented by attorneys and appeal their case to a higher court.
