Terms Used In Louisiana Revised Statutes > Title 25 > Chapter 19 - Wedell-Williams Memorial Aviation Museum of Louisiana

• Commissioner: means the commissioner of insurance. See Louisiana Revised Statutes 22:242
• Enrollee: means an individual who is enrolled in a health maintenance organization. See Louisiana Revised Statutes 22:242
• 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}
