PART 762--MIDWAY ISLANDS CODE--Table of Contents
 
                    Subpart G--Civil Small Claims Law
 
Sec. 762.108  Set-off or counterclaim; pleading; retention of jurisdiction.

    If the defendant, in an action in the Small Claims Court, asserts a 
set-off or counterclaim, the judge may require a formal and concise plea 
of set-off to be filed, or may waive the requirement. If the plaintiff 
requires time to prepare his defense against the counterclaim or set-
off, the judge may continue the case for that purpose. When the set-off 
or counterclaim is for more than the jurisdictional limit of the Small 
Claims Court, as provided by Sec. 762.100, but is for less than $1000, 
the action shall remain in the Small Claims Court and be tried therein 
in its entirety. No set-off or counterclaim for an amount greater than 
$1000 may be asserted in the Small Claims Court.
