Definition of cross-suit
Definition: A cross-suit is a type of legal claim that is made between co-defendants or co-plaintiffs in a case. It relates to the subject of the original claim or counterclaim.
For example, if two people are being sued for a car accident, one defendant might file a cross-suit against the other defendant, claiming that they were also at fault for the accident. This is different from a counterclaim, which is a claim made by one party against the opposing party.
The rules for cross-claims are more limited than those for counterclaims. Only claims related to the subject matter of the original action or property involved therein are appropriate as cross-claims.
