Part 4 · Joinder of Claims and Remedies

Rule 4:27-2. Joinder of Remedies; Fraudulent Conveyances

Amended July 13, 1994 (current)

Except as provided by N.J.S. 2A:50-2 and 2A:50-22 (debt secured by mortgage) and except as otherwise provided by R. 4:7-5 (mandatory crossclaims), if a claim is one heretofore cognizable only after another claim has been prosecuted to a conclusion, then the 2 claims may be joined in a single action, but the court shall grant relief therein only in accordance with the relative substantive rights of the parties. In particular, a plaintiff may state a claim for money and a claim to have set aside a conveyance fraudulent as to plaintiff, without first having obtained a judgment establishing the claim for money.
