Terms Used In New York Laws > Executive > Article 36-A - New York Motor Vehicle Theft and Insurance Fraud Prevention Program

  • Assets: (1) The property comprising the estate of a deceased person, or (2) the property in a trust account.
  • Board: means the New York motor vehicle theft and insurance fraud prevention board. See N.Y. Executive Law 846-K
  • 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

  • Veto: The procedure established under the Constitution by which the President/Governor refuses to approve a bill or joint resolution and thus prevents its enactment into law.

In Congress, the veto can be overridden only by a two-thirds vote in both the Senate and the House.
