Criminal cases cover offenses from the local / magistrate level, to county, state, and federal.
These are charges brought by law enforcement agencies and prosecuted by the magistrates, district attorneys, etc. who are representing the “people”.

These charges range from misdemeanors through various levels of felonies. Dispositions of these cases can range from fines and courts costs to probation and jail time.

Civil cases are most often initiated by individuals or companies suing another person or company.
However, there are federal and county courts that handle civil cases involving civil rights.
Lawyers representing the Plaintiff (the initiator of the case) and those representing the defendant try the case. The disposition here is most often monetary.
These cases can involve landlords and renters, contract disputes, etc.
