2009 North Carolina Code
Chapter 1A - Rules of Civil Procedure.
Rule 18. Joinder of claims and remedies.

Rule 18. Joinder of claims and remedies.

(a)        Joinder of claims. – A party asserting a claim for relief as an original claim, counterclaim, cross claim, or third‑party claim, may join, either as independent or as alternate claims, as many claims, legal or equitable, as he has against an opposing party.

(b)        Joinder of remedies; fraudulent conveyances. – Whenever a claim is one heretofore cognizable only after another claim has been prosecuted to a conclusion, the two claims may be joined in a single action; but the court shall grant relief in that action 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 him, without first having obtained a judgment establishing the claim for money. (1967, c. 954, s. 1; 1969, c. 895, s. 7.)
