Terms Used In New Hampshire Revised Statutes 228:32

  • Appropriation: The provision of funds, through an annual appropriations act or a permanent law, for federal agencies to make payments out of the Treasury for specified purposes. The formal federal spending process consists of two sequential steps: authorization
  • 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
  • state: when applied to different parts of the United States, may extend to and include the District of Columbia and the several territories, so called; and the words "United States" shall include said district and territories. See New Hampshire Revised Statutes 21:4
The commissioner of transportation may sell to other departments and institutions of the state and to subdivisions of the state, materials and supplies purchased for use by the department in connection with their normal operations. He is authorized to assess a fair and equitable charge with respect to the materials and supplies, sufficient to defray all administrative, warehousing, processing, distribution and transportation costs incurred by the department in providing this service. Payments received by the department from these charges shall be credited as income added to the appropriation accounts from which the expenditures were originally charged, so that the resale of items purchased for departmental use will not cause a reduction in funds available for the operation of the department.
