Dietl/Lorenze gives "joint plaintiff" as a translation, but this appelation doesn't wotk very well in US English, because we really don't have such a thing in the US. A "Nebenklage" is translated as civil action incidental to a criminal action. Again we don't have such a thing.
Your best bet may be "Joining Complainant (or Plaintiff) followed by the answer I have given (in parentheses).

Someone mentioned usage in the U.S. I'm not aware of any criminal proceedings which refer to a "plaintiff." That terminology is reserved to my knowledge to civil cases.
