The degree of proof is different for civil and criminal cases. It is preponderance of probability in the case of civil dispute whereas it is proof beyond reasonable doubt in the case of criminal jurisprudence.

I agree with Mr.Rao. The benefit of doubt principle cannot be applied in civil cases.The standard of proof in criminal cases and civil cases are totally different.
