Third-party proceedings incidental to a dispute before a court shall be decided by that court if it is of a higher grade than the court that gave the judgment or if, being of equal grade, there is no rule of jurisdiction of public policy that precludes it. In such cases, the third-party objection is lodged in the same way as incidental claims.
In other cases, the incidental third-party objection is brought, by way of a principal claim, before the court which gave the judgment.
