Terms Used In Iowa Code 456A.19

  • Commission: means the natural resource commission. See Iowa Code 456A.1
  • Department: means the department of natural resources created under section 455A. See Iowa Code 456A.1
  • Director: means the director of the department. See Iowa Code 456A.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
  • state: when applied to the different parts of the United States, includes the District of Columbia and the territories, and the words "United States" may include the said district and territories. See Iowa Code 4.1
