A more thorough explanation:

QUOAD CIVILIA

Quoad civilia is a Latin term that means "with regard to civil rights and benefits."

• A person may be granted asylum quoad civilia, meaning they are given protection and rights in the country they have fled to.
• During the Civil Rights Movement, African Americans fought for equal treatment quoad civilia, including the right to vote and access to public facilities.

The examples illustrate how quoad civilia is used to refer to civil rights and benefits. In the first example, a person is granted asylum with certain rights and protections in a new country. In the second example, African Americans were fighting for equal treatment and access to basic civil rights that had been denied to them.
