Terms Used In Delaware Code > Title 7 > Chapter 11 > Subchapter II - Fresh Water Trout Fishing

• Commercial feed: means all materials or combination of materials which are distributed for the use as feed or for mixing in feed, for animals and cultured aquatic stock other than man except:

  a. See Delaware Code Title 3 Sec. 1703

• Complaint: A written statement by the plaintiff stating the wrongs allegedly committed by the defendant.
• Distributor: means any person who distributes pursuant to paragraph (5) of this section. See Delaware Code Title 3 Sec. 1703
• Equitable: Pertaining to civil suits in "equity" rather than in "law." In English legal history, the courts of "law" could order the payment of damages and could afford no other remedy. See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction. In American jurisprudence, the federal courts have both legal and equitable power, but the distinction is still an important one. For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. ^{Source: U.S. Courts}
