Recent legislation provided for the abolishment of small claims courts, the transfer of small claims cases to justice courts, and the supreme court's promulgation of rules to define cases that constitute small claims cases, rules of civil procedure applicable to small claims cases, and rules for eviction proceedings, as of May 1, 2013. House Bill 1263 amends the relevant law to postpone the abolishment of small claims courts and delay the implementation of the new rules until August 31, 2013.
