In a civil matter, what is the plaintiff required to prove?

The accused's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt
The accused's guilt on the balance of probabilities
The accused's intent
The accused's previous criminal record

The correct answer is: The accused's guilt on the balance of probabilities

In a civil matter, the plaintiff is not required to prove the accused's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt like in a criminal case. Option A is incorrect because civil cases do not involve criminal guilt or sentencing. Option C is incorrect because intent is not always necessary to prove in a civil case, as it depends on the type of claim being made. Option D is incorrect because an accused's previous criminal record does not necessarily have a direct impact on the outcome of a civil case.
