Or is jail only for criminal cases?Can you spend jail time from a CIVIL case?
Only criminal cases. But if someone lies or obstructs justice in a civil case, it's possible to face criminal charges or jail. And there's always contempt of court.Can you spend jail time from a CIVIL case?
There are any number of ways to be legally held in jail without being convicted of a crime. A suspect may be held in pretrial detention, or someone may violate bail or probation.
In civil case the two common ways are a contempt of court or a dispute involving money. Additionally one may also be an uncooperating material witness. The actual mechanism by which civil arrest is accomplished is the Writ of Capias.
Possibly. Civil cases are disputes about money. However, in a civil case, a judge could cite someone for contempt. Jail time can be imposed on the contempt citation.
no, it's only crimes of a criminal nature that result in a criminal jail sentence
No. There is no jail, probation, etc... from a civil case.
you take an oath dont lie dont get held in contempt of court abide by the rules

NEED TO KNOW! What are some civil liberties cases?
i need some cases on civil liberties and tht would affect high school students or any1 around tht age!NEED TO KNOW! What are some civil liberties cases?
Tinker v. Des Moines, 393 U.S. 503 (1969).
Three high schools students wore black arm bands to school to protest the Vietnam War. They were suspended for violating school dress code. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the students were denied their First Amendment freedom of expression.
Hazelwood School District v. Kuhlmeier, 484 U.S. 260 (1988).
The Principal of Hazelwood East High School, in St. Louis County, Mo. stripped out of the student-run school newspaper an article about teenage pregnancy (because he thought that the article would have effectively revealed the identities of girls who were pregnant, violating their privacy). The students filed suit and argued that the Principal had violated their First Amendment right -- freedom of the press. But the U.S. Supreme Court disagreed. The USSC held that the newspaper is a school project to be used as an educational tool and it's content can be reasonably regulated by school officials.
But the most famous one is West Virginia Board of Education v. Barnette, 319 U.S. 624, (1943).
Mormon children were expelled from school for refusing to recite the Pledge of Allegiance. The Court concluded that punishment of a person for refusing to engage in an activity which is violative of their own religious beliefs (Mormons believe that they do not ';pledge allegiance to'; anything but God) is a violation of the free exercise of religion.NEED TO KNOW! What are some civil liberties cases?
You need to google the teenage boy who wore an anti-war teeshirt to school and was expelled.
Or look at the anti-war protesters in NYC during the Republican convention. They were arrested, detained in a contaminated bus depot for weeks. Nobody knew where they were.
The judges were furious when they learned that the police had detained them illegally -- violating their right to freedom to assemble and freedom of speech.
Do research. It's the best way to get homework done.
Try the website for the American Civil Liberties Union: www.aclu.org. Lots of info there, and cool music, too, at the standup/youth link.
There are several --- google black arm bands, a vietnam era case or Jehova Witnesses and the pledge of allegiance. Get creative and think for yourself and stop spending your time on this stupid web site hoping to learn something without putting forth some effort.
