German term

Der Betrag wird aufrechnungsweise gegen die Klagsforderung eingewandt

German to English Law/Patents Law (general) Counter claim in a legal suit
I think this means that the sum is being set off from the claim, however, the "eingewandt" is not clear to me. Any ideas for this?

The amount is to be charged up against (or: set off from) the claim

"wird eingewandt" probably means that defendant (or his lawyer) is asking court to charge up the amount against opponent's claim, in the form of an objection (="Einwendung"; not a final decision)
Peer comment(s):

agree Gruffalo : or "offset against the claim"
