1.Describe the differences between civil and criminal actions. This can also be explained as the distinction between crimes and torts. Specifically, address the goals and objectives of a civil case versus a criminal case, the differences in remedies and outcomes sought, how the commencement of each action differs, and how the players in each system differ. There are 4 distinct points to be addressed in this part of the paper.
2.Describe a scenario (fact or fiction) in which the same conduct can be prosecuted as a crime and also brought as a civil action. An example here may be the OJ Simpson scenario. In your description, be sure to research and address the following:
A.Explain the elements of the crime chosen, including the mens rea and actus reus. Be sure to provide a legal definition of the crime based on research. You can use your own state’s criminal definition here or rely on the Model Penal Code. Be sure to provide proper in-text and reference page citation for your authority;
B.Indicate whether this crime is mala in se or mala prohibita and explain why;
C.Indicate the classification of the crime based on your research, i.e., felony or misdemeanor, and the degree, or level, based on the jurisdiction researched.
