Standard of Proof
Degree of proof required. In criminal cases, prosecutors must prove a defendant's guilt "beyond a reasonable doubt." The majority of civil lawsuits require proof "by a preponderance of the evidence" (50 percent plus).
The standard of proof required to prove is much greater in criminal court than any other type of court.
