Terms Used In New Jersey Statutes 2A:62-26
- Complaint: A written statement by the plaintiff stating the wrongs allegedly committed by the defendant.
- 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
The attorney general need not, on behalf of the state, make or offer to make any tender or payment into court, either on or before filing the complaint. If the judgment of the court is in favor of the state, the court shall determine upon what equitable terms the grant or conveyance in fee shall be set aside and declared of no effect.
