Exceptions and details
Mississippi has no separately named small-claims court; small claims are heard in Justice Court (the Judiciary lists 82 Justice Courts statewide), whose civil jurisdiction is capped at $3,500 by Miss. Code § 9-11-9. The same cap applies to individuals and businesses. County Courts (where they exist) have concurrent jurisdiction; larger claims go to County or Circuit Court. Bills to raise the cap to $5,000 or $15,000 (2025: HB 83, HB 852, HB 1510, SB 2499; 2026: HB 876, SB 2696) all died, so $3,500 remains current as of Sept. 2026.
