Terms Used In Arizona Laws 20-3554
- Blanket travel insurance: means a policy of travel insurance that is issued to any eligible group and that provides coverage for specific classes of persons defined in the policy with coverage provided to all members of the eligible group without a separate charge to individual members of the eligible group. See Arizona Laws 20-3551
- 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
- Group travel insurance: means travel insurance that is issued to any eligible group. See Arizona Laws 20-3551
