I need help please..
State law recognizes that the owner of a vehicle is the person or company whose name appears on the title, or legal and official ownership document. The state also recognizes payment agreements that people and businesses make through official, legal means. A young woman says her neighbor agreed to purchase her old car. She agreed to accept payments from him on a monthly basis until he paid off the car and trusted that he would honor this plan. She signed ownership over to him on the title, which he also signed. She says that he has not made any payments and still has possession of the car. The neighbor says he understood the car to be a gift and has no obligation to make payments. He did not sign an official agreement to make payments. He says that she gave him the car in exchange for his electric scooter, which is new and gets great gas mileage. The neighbor maintains she just wants the car back now that he fixed it and it looks better. Is this a matter of constitutional, criminal, civil, or military law? How do you know?
Civil law civil law is the redress of wrongs by compelling compensation or restitution: the wrongdoer is not punished; he only suffers so much harm as is necessary to make good the wrong he has done
Thanks so much!
Can you help me with another one @LilliBelle

Federal law requires that news agencies not publish or broadcast information that could threaten the security of the nation's armed forces in times of conflict. However, the Constitution protects the right to free expression of ideas. Judges use past decisions on cases where the law and rights come into conflict to settle similar disputes. In one case, New York Times vs. United States, the Supreme Court decided that a newspaper could publish information about the military that the president said should remain secret to protect the troops. The justices said the president failed to prove that the information could threaten the nation's security. Federal officials accuse an online newspaper of violating the law against publishing secret information about the military. One of the newspaper's reporters posted comments online about her friend, who is a soldier serving overseas. On her personal website, she posted a picture of him, where he is stationed, and negative opinions of his commanders, including the president. The newspaper insists that the reporter did this on her own time and that the newspaper is not responsible. The reporter maintains that whether at work or not, she has the right to express her opinions freely under the Constitution. U.S. government officials say that the posting of the information could put the soldier in harm's way. Officials also say that her negative opinions could encourage others to stop supporting the soldiers and break laws in protest. They insist that because a reporter for the newspaper, people could believe that her ideas are those of everyone working for the newspaper. They say the newspaper and the reporter have threatened the safety and security of the armed forces. Is this a matter of constitutional, criminal, civil, or military law? How do you know? Is the source of the law a statute, regulation, case law, or a combination? How do you know?
