- Beneficiary: A person who is entitled to receive the benefits or proceeds of a will, trust, insurance policy, retirement plan, annuity, or other contract. Source: OCC

See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction.

For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts
