For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts
- state: means the State of Alaska unless applied to the different parts of the United States and in the latter case it includes the District of Columbia and the territories. See Alaska Statutes 01.10.060
