Terms Used In Texas Election Code Chapter 32 > Subchapter A - Appointment of Election Judges

  • Comptroller: means the state comptroller of public accounts. See Texas Government Code 312.011
  • County election precinct: means an election precinct established under § 42. See Texas Election Code 1.005
  • 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
