Civil cases have a lower standard of evidence, and fifth amendment protection is weaker. Defendants can end up in a situation where they have to say something in a civil trial that then kills their defense in the criminal trial.
On the flip side, if the criminal trial gets a conviction, then the civil trial is a lot easier.
What could be example of something like this in this case?
