Best Answer

People go to court for one of three main reasons:

  • In a criminal proceeding because they are accused of some crime
  • In a civil proceeding because they are accused of some civil violation (violation of contract, negligent or intentional damage to property or character, etc.)
  • Or they maybe forced to appear as a witness.
