Terms Used In Texas Government Code Chapter 791 > Subchapter C - Specific Interlocal Contracting Authority

  • Comptroller: means the state comptroller of public accounts. See Texas Government Code 312.011
  • Contract: A legal written agreement that becomes binding when signed.
  • 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

  • Justice: when applied to a magistrate, means justice of the peace. See Texas Government Code 312.011
  • Population: means the population shown by the most recent federal decennial census. See Texas Government Code 311.005
