Terms Used In Indiana Code 22-2-13-16
- employee: means a person employed or permitted to work or perform services for remuneration under a contract of hire, written or oral, by an employer. See Indiana Code 22-2-13-3
- 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
- Probate: Proving a will
(1) enjoin any act or practice that violates this chapter; and
(2) order any other equitable relief that is just and proper under the circumstances to redress the violation of or to enforce this chapter.
As added by P.L.151-2007, SEC.3. Amended by P.L.84-2016, SEC.94.
