Terms Used In Texas Water Code Chapter 51 > Subchapter L - Tax Plan

  • Assets: (1) The property comprising the estate of a deceased person, or (2) the property in a trust account.
  • Comptroller: means the state comptroller of public accounts. See Texas Government Code 312.011
  • Contract: A legal written agreement that becomes binding when signed.

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
