We obtain this result by constructing, for each $m \in \Z \backslash \{0 \}$, a plurisubharmonic function from a scattering determinant whose zeros on the physical sheet $Λ_0$ determine the poles on $Λ_m$. We prove that the order of growth of the counting function is related to a suitable estimate on this function that we establish for generic potentials. We also show that for a potential that is the characteristic function of a ball, the resonance counting function is bounded below by $C_m r^d$ on each sheet $Λ_m$, $m \in \Z \backslash \{0\}$.33 pages and 1 figureMathematical Physics35P25, 47A10, 47A40, 81U20text
