CIVIL-LAW SET-OFF AND SET-OFF MADE WHEN THE COURT SATISFIES COUNTERCLAIMS AND INITIAL CLAIMS: THEORETICAL REFLECTIONS ON THE SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES OF LEGAL INSTITUTIONS (continuation)

In the article, the author continues to distinguish between a civil-legal offset and a set-off

made when the court satisfies a counterclaim and initial claims. As a criterion, recognition is

taken as an act of will, proceeding respectively from the compensator (the person to whom the

application for set-off is addressed) and the defendant in the counterclaim. The article analyzes

the anticipated and “double-edged” recognition. The author substantiates the admissibility

of using the mechanism of convalidation (cure) of a defective transaction for cases when the

corresponding expression of will is addressed to the court without presenting an independent

claim for recognizing the transaction as valid. The issues related to the determination of the

moment from which the transaction is considered cured, the content of the convalidated

contract, as well as the legal consequences of the subsequent judicial discrediting of the

convalidated transaction on the grounds related to its impugnability are considered.

Keywords: civil-legal set-off; set-off made when the court satisfies counterclaims and

initial claims; judicial recognition; anticipatory recognition; “double-edged” recognition;

convalidation of a defective transaction.
