Terms Used In Nevada Revised Statutes 706.576
- 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
- Injunction: An order of the court prohibiting (or compelling) the performance of a specific act to prevent irreparable damage or injury.
- person: means a natural person, any form of business or social organization and any other nongovernmental legal entity including, but not limited to, a corporation, partnership, association, trust or unincorporated organization. See Nevada Revised Statutes 0.039
- Writ: A formal written command, issued from the court, requiring the performance of a specific act.
2. After payment of any such fee or other amount under protest, duly verified and setting forth the grounds of objection to the legality thereof, filed with the Department at the time of payment of the fee or other amount protested, the person making the payment may bring an action against the State Treasurer in the district court in and for Carson City for the recovery of the amount so paid under protest.
