Terms Used In California Government Code 19996.3

  • Department: means the Department of Human Resources. See California Government Code 19815
  • Division: means the Division of Labor Relations. See California Government Code 19815
  • 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: means the State of California, unless applied to the different parts of the United States. See California Government Code 18

(2) Regulations adopted pursuant to paragraph (1) shall ensure that the program for employees subject to this section is generally equitable and is consistent with the personal leave program provided to employees covered by memoranda of understanding reached under Chapter 10.3 (commencing with Section 3512) of Division 4 of Title 1.
