Terms Used In New Jersey Statutes 17:12B-191
- Assets: (1) The property comprising the estate of a deceased person, or (2) the property in a trust account.
- 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: extends to and includes any State, territory or possession of the United States, the District of Columbia and the Canal Zone. See New Jersey Statutes 1:1-2
If a State association, of whose property and business the commissioner has taken possession as aforesaid, or any member thereof, deems itself or himself aggrieved by any act of the commissioner, or any failure of the commissioner to act, while he is in charge of the affairs of the State association and in possession of its assets, the State association or such member, may in an action in the Superior Court apply for appropriate relief. The court, upon notice to the commissioner, may proceed in the action in a summary manner or otherwise and enjoin or compel further proceedings or action by the commissioner, and make such other order or enter such judgment as shall be equitable and just.
