Terms Used In Indiana Code 12-15-34-5
- 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

necessary to carry out this chapter and the federal Social Security Act concerning the providing of services and to ensure uniform equitable treatment of all applicants for and recipients of Medicaid supportive services in the recipients’ own homes.
