Terms Used In Indiana Code 15-14-9-2

  • 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
     (c) The total amount appropriated under subsection (a) may not exceed a sum equal to one cent ($.01) on each one hundred dollars ($100) valuation of the taxable property located in the county.
