Terms Used In Maine Revised Statutes Title 14 Sec. 5903

  • Counterclaim: A claim that a defendant makes against a plaintiff.
In actions against executors, administrators, trustees or others in a representative capacity, they may assert by counterclaim such demands as those whom they represent might have so asserted in actions against them; but no demands due to or from them in their own right can be asserted by counterclaim in such actions.
