Respuesta :

Sometimes a lawsuit is filed so that a plaintiff can satisfy a very personal or profound sense of right and wrong, or to make an important point that impacts more than the parties in the case. It would be under the circumstance when both or one party is interested in settlement that it would be wise to settle out of court to avoid further conflicts.

Answer:

I think this is more common in civil cases because depending on the case it would be easiest for both parties to just settle.

Explanation:

For instance, if there is overwhelming evidence in favor of the prosecution then the defense would probably need to settle the case. Or in a civil case when there is not enough for the defense to sway the judge it would be quicker and in some cases cheaper to settle for both persons.
