We investigate the reaction e,e->mu, nu, q, q as a possible place to test the lepton number violating interactions of singly charged scalars (Delta(L)) belonging to a SU(2)L triplet. The existence of such scalars is predicted by some majoron models, as well as by the left-right symmetric extension of the Standard Model. We show that this reaction may be observed in ee collision well below the threshold of (Delta(L)). For the colliding energy E=500 GeV the mass of the singly charged Higgs triplet may be excluded up to 2 TeV and even more, depending on values of the appropriate Yukawa couplings.
