counterclaim Explanation: Hello, It seems like a counterclaim of some sorts. QUE, FAISANT L'OBJET DE PLAINTES D'UN CERTAIN NOMBRE DE SES CLIENTS POUR DETOURNEMENT DE SOMMES ENCAISSEES PAR LUI, IL S'EST BORNE, SANS CONTESTER LES MONTANTS ALLEGUES PAR LES PLAIGNANTS, A LEUR OPPOSER L'EXCEPTION DE COMPTE A FAIRE AVEC LES COMMISSIONS QUI LUI SERAIENT DUES, TOUT EN SE REFUSANT, AU COURS DE L'INFORMATION ET DES DEBATS, A INDIQUER LE LIEU OU SE SERAIENT TROUVEES LES SOMMES EN ARGENT LIQUIDE QU'IL PRETENDAIT GARDER EN DEPOT ; http://www.lexeek.com/jus-luminum/decision-cass-crim-11-01-1... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counterclaim I know that a "exception de compensation" is a defense of set-off. http://books.google.com/books?id=VhEaAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA484&lpg=P... I hope this helps. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2009-07-17 15:17:04 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "defense of set-off" and "counterclaim" often go together. |
