Terms Used In 5 Guam Code Ann. § 32105

  • Common law: The legal system that originated in England and is now in use in the United States. It is based on judicial decisions rather than legislative action.
  • Statute: A law passed by a legislature.
(a) The provisions of this chapter are not exclusive. The remedies specified in this chapter for violation of any section of this chapter or for conduct proscribed by any section of this chapter shall be in addition to any other procedures or remedies for any violation or wrongful conduct provided for in any other law. Nothing in this chapter shall limit any other statutory or any common law rights of the Attorney General, or any other person. If any act or practice proscribed by this chapter is also the basis for a cause of action in common law or a violation of another statute, the person may assert the common law or statutory cause of action under the procedures and with the remedies applicable thereto.

(b) Where any statute allows attorney’s fees, such fees shall be awarded for services of the Attorney General as in any case brought by private counsel. All such fees shall be paid into the Consumer Protection Fund. The Attorney General shall, by regulation, set the hourly rate or rates for government of Guam attorneys, such rate to be not less than One Hundred Twenty-Five Dollars ($125) per hour. Until such regulations are promulgated, the rates shall be One Hundred Twenty-Five Dollars ($125) per hour.
