Legislator summary

AI generated

The court declared the reconventional claim inadmissible within the execution action but permitted the defendant to raise compensation in the opposition. While the plaintiff argued for a full counterclaim, the defendant contended that compensation was a valid defense under the existing title. The court ruled that the execution procedure strictly limits counterclaims, yet allows the specific defense of compensation to offset the debt within the original title's scope.
