Some again have added a fourth class, namely
mutual accusation, which they call ἀντικατηγορία
Others, however, regard it as belonging to the comparative group, to which indeed the common case of
reciprocal suits on different grounds bears a strong
resemblance. If this latter case should also be called
ἀντικατηγορία (for it has no special name of its own), we
must divide mutual accusation into two classes, in one
of which the parties bring the same charge against
each other, while in the other they bring different
charges. The same division will also apply to claims.
