Superior Court ‘Hubs’ To Adjudicate
Small Claims, Ltd. Eviction and Collections Cases
Effective March 18, a handful of
Los Angeles Superior Court “hub” courthouses will accept and manage all new
small claims, limited collections and limited evictions cases filed in Los
Angeles County.
Unless litigants are notified that
their case is being transferred, existing small claims cases (under $10,000), limited
collections cases (under $25,000), and limited eviction cases (unlawful
detainers under $25,000) will be processed in the courthouse where they were
filed.
As of March 18, U.S. Postal Service ZIP code locations will dictate
where to file a small claims, limited collections or limited eviction case. LASC developed a table to assist filing
parties that will be posted in every courthouse and is also available on the
Court’s website www.lasuperiorcourt.org
.
