Not directly, but what if, in order to deal with the civil case charge, the dealer gave up evidence on the source worthy of criminal prosecution? The judge can always dream. And what are Canadian laws on seizure? If the dealer is ordered to pay $50,000 and can't, can they seize all his assets and essentially put him out of business?
Or maybe a criminal case is coming soon, and they're just hoping a guilty civil verdict will be useful in winning the criminal case?
