    I’m wondering if Common Law is civil law or criminal law or both? Or none?

    Civil Law = Compensation
    Criminal Law = Punishment
    Common Law = Damages or Equity.

    If contractual disputes are decided using common law I’m wondering what gets decided using civil law?

    Common law is a branch of civil law and is remedies by an award of damages (or equity)
