What is the name of the body of law that deals with disputes between private parties?

Constitutional law
Criminal law
Tax law
Civil law

The correct answer is: Civil law

Civil law is the body of law that deals with disputes between private parties, such as individuals or organizations. This can include matters such as contract law, property rights, and personal injury claims. Constitutional law (A) pertains to the laws and principles outlined in a country's constitution. Criminal law (B) deals with crimes and their punishments. Tax law (C) focuses on the rules and regulations governing taxation. While these laws may also at times involve private parties, they primarily deal with government regulations and enforcement. Therefore, they are not the correct answers for the name of the body of law that deals with disputes between private parties.
