13-7-3. Setoff and recoupment distinguished.
The only printed version. Current through: Including Acts of the 2025 Regular Session of the General Assembly.
Recoupment differs from setoff in this respect: Any claim or demand the defendant may have against the plaintiff may be used as a setoff, while only a claim or demand arising out of the same transaction as that sued on by the plaintiff may be used as a recoupment.
