Terms Used In New Hampshire Revised Statutes 512:43
- 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
- Plaintiff: The person who files the complaint in a civil lawsuit.
- Trustee: A person or institution holding and administering property in trust.
The trustee shall recover the trustee’s costs in all cases from the plaintiff except as provided in this chapter, unless otherwise ordered by the court, and the court shall adjust all costs in matters relating to trustee process as between the plaintiff and trustee or any claimant of property in the hands of the trustee as shall seem equitable. Such costs shall be retained by the trustee from the amount chargeable.
