  $c$-realcompact spaces are introduced by Karamzadeh and Keshtkar in Quaest.
Math. 41(8), 2018, 1135-1167. We offer a characterization of these spaces $X$
via $c$-stable family of closed sets in $X$ by showing that $X$ is
$c$-realcompact if and only if each $c$-stable family of closed sets in $X$
with finite intersection property has nonempty intersection. This last
condition which makes sense for an arbitrary topological space can be taken as
an alternative definition of a $c$-realcompact space. We show that each
topological space can be extended as a dense subspace to a $c$-realcompact
space with some desired extension property. An allied class of spaces viz
$CP$-compact spaces akin to that of $c$-realcompact spaces are introduced. The
paper ends after examining how far a known class of $c$-realcompact spaces
could be realized as $CP$-compact for appropriately chosen ideal $P$ of closed
sets in $X$.
