. "Since this abolition occurred in 1988, it can safely be assumed that almost all actors in the 1963 version of Doctor Who belonged to the union. A notable exception was Eddie Kidd, a stunt double brought in on the last serial of the \"classic\" era. His admittance to the production by John Nathan-Turner's staff caused another stunt performer to walk off the set in protest \u2014though JNT was fully in compliance with both laws and union regulation in effect at the time. The need to get a union card and the strictures placed on them explains the shape of most Doctor Who actors' career paths. A conundrum of membership prior to 1988 was that one needed a union card to work in the industry, but that one couldn't get a card without being a working actor. Thus most actors had to obtain work in regional productions, which awarded provisional membership in the union. After enough regional work, actors became eligible for full membership, which could then lead to national work. This is why so many Doctor Who actors' biographies, like that of Elisabeth Sladen, have relatively large sections devoted to time spent in regional theatre or on television programmes that only broadcast in a part of the UK. Additionally, Equity members are required to have unique professional names. It is for this reason, and not vanity, that some actors have been forced to create \"stage names\" for themselves. Notably, both \"David Tennant\" and \"Peter Davison\" are creations to satisfy Equity rules. Membership in the union is still advantageous, as of 2012, so most actors in the DWU retain an affiliation with it."@en . "Equity"@en . .

"For example (this example is unrealistic; it is oversimplified), if an owner paid a quarter of the value of a home originally (the downpayment), and over time, the owner has paid a mix of interest plus another quarter of the principle, the owner now has equity of half the value of the house. Now, some of the ways this example is oversimplified is that it didn't explain that the interest is usually paid first and the value of the house changes over time. To calculate the current equity, you need to know the current fair value of the asset or home and how much is still owed. Subtract the amount owed from the value to get the current equity.

"Equity was a parallel legal system developed in the United Kingdom starting in the 15th century. It was first developed to deal with injustices in the common law, but by the 19th century, it too was bogged down in procedural and resource issues that made it largely ineffective. In the late 19th century, most common law jurisdictions in the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada and the commonwealth merged the two court systems. However, a distinction is still made in a few jurisdictions, most notably, the state of Delaware. When the common law courts were developed, they depended on a strict set of precedents and a limited set of remedies, largely limited to the payment of damages and writs for possession of property. By the 15th century, it was clear that the strict application of common law was usually inequitable in the circumstances, or the remedy granted by the court was completely inadequate. Technically, the sovereign still had the authority to overrule a court of law, and by the 15th century, this authority was delegated to the chancery. The chancery effectively became the first court of appeal in the United Kingdom and developed new remedies, most notably the injunction and specific performance, which were not available under common law. In the mid-16th century, the chancery was strengthened when what could be described as the first trusts to avoid estate taxes were developed. The common law refused to recognize the rights of the beneficiaries of these trusts and left the use of an estate's land in the exclusive hands of the trustee. However, equity did recognize such trusts creating a distinction between \"legal\" property interests and \"equitable\" property interests. This distinction was later recognized by the development of the mortgage. The chancery soon became a court of original jurisdiction instead of just an appeal court. The lawyers who were allowed to appear there were the solicitors. However, as both court systems became more and more separate, even experienced lawyers soon became confused about what types of claims could be brought in which court. Moreover, procedure in chancery was truly byzantine and many claims with merit could not be pursued either due to minor defects in pleading or the lengthy delays in waiting for a trial. Delays of years or decades were common, particularly in complicated estates cases. In the late 18th century, the United Kingdom passed the Judicature Act which did away with the original juridiction of chancery and transferred all new cases to the common law courts. The Act also put equity precedent ahead of common law precedent where the two conflicted. Although equity and common law are now merged, old rules regarding equity are still maintained, such as the need for good faith when pursuing remedies in equity."@en . . .
