In the state of Arizona, small claims cannot exceed over $3,500. All cases are heard by either a judge or hearing officer, who then makes a decision.

• The decision is final and binding on both parties. There is no right to a jury trial or an appeal in small claims cases.
• Formal Rules of procedure do not apply. Procedures in small claims cases are intended to be simple enough for a person to file all the necessary forms and represent him/herself at an informal hearing.

Arizona Small Claims Venue:

If the complaint has been filed in the wrong precinct, the defendant can file a Motion for Change of Venue. The form may be obtained from the court. The plaintiff may file an objection to the requested change. If the court orders a change of venue, the case shall be transferred to the proper precinct and the plaintiff shall pay all fees. The motion alleging improper venue must be made before filing the ANSWER. If the defendant fails to file a timely request for a change of venue, that right is waived.
