A 9332 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to increasing the monetary jurisdiction of the justice courts from three thousand dollars to fifteen thousand dollars

This bill increases the maximum monetary amount that justice courts can handle from $3,000 to $15,000 for civil cases involving money claims or property recovery. It directly affects individuals and small businesses filing lawsuits under $15,000, allowing these cases to be resolved in local justice courts instead of higher courts. The change modifies specific sections of the Uniform Justice Court Act to update jurisdiction limits throughout the law, ensuring all relevant provisions reference the new $15,000 threshold.
