[Jeff Mazor]

Better still===== how will a county court judge be able to disburse above
$15,000?

The interesting question is how much the county court can require to be
deposited into the court registry--more than $15,000.00?   I represent
landlords in about 10 counties and county court judges do not order more
than $15,000.00 to be deposited.  If you client has the $15k, it can buy
some time, maybe a lot depending on the county.

Stupid Question time:

 

I have a commercial client who owes rents significantly in excess of the
$15k jurisdiction of the County Court. Suit is filed in County Court ONLY
for eviction. Can this be sustained, or do I have a basis for moving the
Court to transfer the case to the Circuit Court despite there being no
demand for money?
