Terms Used In Indiana Code 13-26-11-1
- 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
- Property: includes personal and real property. See Indiana Code 1-1-4-5
(3) The size of the meter or connection.
(4) Whether the property served has been or will be required to pay separately for the cost of any of the facilities of the works.
(5) A combination of these or other factors that the board determines is necessary to establish just and equitable rates and charges.
