Re: Small Claims or Attorney?

Found this:.............What is the difference between civil and criminal procedures?In criminal matters, action is taken by the state (either federal, state, or local government agencies) against an individual for a violation of the law. A criminal matter can result in a sentence such as a fine, probation or time in jail................A civil proceeding is one in which one person (plaintiff) sues another (defendant) who has caused him injury or loss. The plaintiff seeks compensation from the defendant for his loss. A judgment in a civil matter does not include the imposition of a criminal sentence......................But still not the wording I remembered..........Joe, again
