1. Definitions and Characteristics.
The so-called counterclaim in a labor arbitration lawsuit refers to an independent counterclaim filed by the respondent to the claimant or the defendant in the litigation against the plaintiff in the labor arbitration or litigation procedure that has already begun, with the purpose of offsetting or annexing the arbitration claim of the claimant or the plaintiff in the lawsuit. The counterclaim of a labor arbitration lawsuit has the following three characteristics:
1) The proposer of the counterclaim is the respondent of the arbitration or the defendant of the lawsuit, and the object of the counterclaim is the claimant of the arbitration or the plaintiff of the lawsuit.
2) The existence of the counterclaim must be a prerequisite for the filing of the counterclaim, without which the counterclaim would not be possible.
3) The purpose of the counterclaim is to annex or offset the arbitration claim filed by the claimant or the claim filed by the plaintiff.
It is precisely on the basis of the above-mentioned characteristics of the counterclaim that the law provides that the present claim and the counterclaim may be tried together. In addition, the counterclaim is also independent, and if the lawsuit is withdrawn after the counterclaim is filed, it will not affect the continuation of the trial of the counterclaim. If there is no withdrawal of the lawsuit, the lawsuit and the counterclaim shall be joined.
II. The Role of the Counterclaim.
The existence of counterclaims as a legal system has its rationality and positive effects, which are manifested in the following aspects:
1) Since the counterclaim can be tried together with the current lawsuit, judicial resources are saved and trial efficiency is improved;
2) Since the counterclaim can be tried together with the present lawsuit, it is more conducive to ascertaining the facts and distinguishing between right and wrong;
3) Since the counterclaim can annex or offset the claim, the successful filing of the counterclaim can enable the counterclaimant to take the initiative.
Due to the above functions, in practice, as long as the conditions for initiating a counterclaim are met, a counterclaim should be filed as far as possible.
3. The filing of a counterclaim is closed.
The following conditions must be met for the filing of a counterclaim in a labor arbitration lawsuit:
1) It must be filed by the respondent of the arbitration lawsuit or the defendant of the lawsuit against the claimant of the arbitration lawsuit or the plaintiff of the lawsuit, respectively, and the subject must be qualified and accurate.
2) It must be filed after the case is accepted and before the end of the hearing debate, and if the case is filed after the conclusion of the hearing debate, the arbitral tribunal or the tribunal shall inform the initiator to file a separate case.
3) It must be filed within the statute of limitations, and the retrospective leniency in arbitration is 60 days from the date of the dispute, and the statute of limitations is 2 years from the date of the dispute, and the counterclaim filed beyond the statute of limitations will be rejected or dismissed.
4) The counterclaim of the lawsuit must be premised on the counterclaim of the arbitration, and if the counterclaim is not filed in time at the time of arbitration, the counterclaim of the lawsuit will not be accepted.
