There are 3 basic types with standard of proof
There are essentially three standards of proof applicable in most court proceedings. In criminal and delinquency cases, the offense must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt, the highest standard. In civil cases and neglect and dependency proceedings, the lowest standard applies by a mere preponderance of the evidence (more likely than not). In some civil cases, and in juvenile proceedings such a permanent termination of parental rights, an intermediate standard applies: proof by clear and convincing evidence.
Criminal law involves prosecution by the government of a person
for an act that has been classified as a crime. Our Chandler

Civil cases, on the other hand, involve individuals and organizations
seeking to resolve legal disputes. In a criminal case, a state prosecutor initiates the suit, while the victim brings the suit in a civil case.
Persons convicted of a crime may be
incarcerated, fined, or both. However, persons found liable in a
civil case may only have to give up property or pay money, but are
not incarcerated.
