Terms Used In Indiana Code 14-27-3-4

  • Damages: Money paid by defendants to successful plaintiffs in civil cases to compensate the plaintiffs for their injuries.
  • Judgment: means all final orders, decrees, and determinations in an action and all orders upon which executions may issue. See Indiana Code 1-1-4-5
  • Jurisdiction: (1) The legal authority of a court to hear and decide a case. Concurrent jurisdiction exists when two courts have simultaneous responsibility for the same case. (2) The geographic area over which the court has authority to decide cases.
  • Liabilities: The aggregate of all debts and other legal obligations of a particular person or legal entity.
   Sec. 4. The collection of assessments is not defeated by reason of a defect in the proceeding occurring before the judgment of the court approving and confirming the assessment of benefits and damages and ordering the work established if the court had jurisdiction. The judgment is conclusive that all prior proceedings were regular and according to law. A person may not, at any stage of the proceedings, take advantage of an error, a defect, or an informality that does not directly affect the person. If the court releases a person of liability or modifies the person’s assessment, the act of the court does not affect the rights or liabilities of any other person.
