No, it’s because the finding was made in civil court, not criminal court, therefore not convicted.

Huh? You can be convicted in civile court…

A conviction leads to sentencing (normally) in a criminal matter. A cival court is settling a cival matter, not a criminal one. Criminal courts convict you of a crime and sentence you to some kind of punishment. Cival courts can make you pay a fine, but not convict you of a crime.
