Terms Used In South Carolina Code 49-19-1870
- 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
- lands: as used in this chapter shall be held to cover and include railroads and all property assessed for benefits. See South Carolina Code 49-19-40
In all judgments, decrees and orders of sale of such delinquent lands the court may make proper and equitable provision for ascertaining the amount and for the payment of all unpaid State and county taxes with the penalties and costs thereon against the lands ordered sold, to be paid either out of the proceeds of sale thereof or by the purchaser.
