Terms Used In Kentucky Statutes 235.280

  • Commissioner: means the commissioner of the Department of Fish and
    Wildlife Resources. See Kentucky Statutes 235.010
  • Department: means the Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources. See Kentucky Statutes 235.010
  • 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
  • Waters of this state: means any waters within the territorial limits of this state. See Kentucky Statutes 235.010
