A quick definition of civil disability:

Civil Disability: When someone is unable to perform a certain function or activity, they may be considered to have a disability. This can be due to physical or mental impairments. In some cases, a person may lose certain legal rights or privileges as a result of a criminal conviction, such as losing their driver's license after a DWI conviction. It's important to remember that disabilities are evaluated on an individual basis and are determined by how they affect a person's ability to perform major life activities.

A more thorough explanation:

Civil disability is a legal term that refers to the loss of a person's legal rights or privileges due to a criminal conviction. It can include the revocation of a driver's license after a DWI conviction or other similar consequences.

  • After being convicted of a DUI, John's civil disability resulted in the loss of his driver's license for a year.
  • Due to his criminal record, Mark's civil disability prevented him from obtaining certain professional licenses.

These examples illustrate how a person's civil disability can impact their ability to participate in certain activities or obtain certain privileges due to a criminal conviction.
