Terms Used In Hawaii Revised Statutes > Chapter 657D > Part III - Rent, Installment Contracts, Mortgages, Liens, Assignments, Leases

  • Contract: A legal written agreement that becomes binding when signed.
  • Court: includes any court of competent jurisdiction of the State of Hawaii, whether or not a court of record. See Hawaii Revised Statutes 657D-1
  • Deed: The legal instrument used to transfer title in real property from one person to another.
  • Defendant: In a civil suit, the person complained against; in a criminal case, the person accused of the crime.
  • Dependent: A person dependent for support upon another.
  • 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
