(a) This title shall be known and may be cited as the Economic Recovery Bond Act.
(b) The Legislature finds and declares that it is essential to the public welfare that an efficient, equitable, and alternative source of funding be established in order to preserve public education and critical health and safety programs that otherwise could not be funded in light of the accumulated state budget deficit, and that securing the availability of the proceeds of the bonds proposed to be issued and sold pursuant to this title is the most efficient, equitable, and economical means available.
Terms Used In California Government Code 99050
- 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
- State: means the State of California, unless applied to the different parts of the United States. See California Government Code 18
