Terms Used In Connecticut General Statutes 13b-108
- Corporation: A legal entity owned by the holders of shares of stock that have been issued, and that can own, receive, and transfer property, and carry on business in its own name.
- 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
- Injunction: An order of the court prohibiting (or compelling) the performance of a specific act to prevent irreparable damage or injury.
(b) Any person or any officer of any association, limited liability company or corporation who violates § 13b-103 may be enjoined from further operation or maintenance of any livery business by order of the Superior Court. The Commissioner of Transportation shall bring any application for an injunction to the judicial district in which the principal place of business of any such person, association, limited liability company or corporation is located. The court upon a finding of a violation of § 13b-103 may issue an injunction and make such orders for the discontinuance of such business as it deems equitable.
