Explanation

Civil liability for wrongful acts is primarily based on equitable principles - fairness, justice, and good conscience. Unlike criminal liability (public grounds) or purely private disputes, civil law seeks to restore balance and provide compensation based on equity. Private grounds protect individual rights, public grounds protect society, but civil liability combines concerns through equity.
