  • Assets: (1) The property comprising the estate of a deceased person, or (2) the property in a trust account.

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
