P0816 After court unification, a trial court may classify a suit for money as a limited civil action only if it will necessarily result in a verdict below $25,000, and a motion to reclassify it as an unlimited civil action should be granted unless a verdict in excess of $25,000 is a jurisdictional impossibility.CitationYTUARTE v SUPERIOR COURT (Limitation Reclassification) 129 CA4 266 [See: CA Const VI, 5; CCP 403.040; Walker v Superior Court 53 C3 257; Maldonado v Superior Court 45 CA4 397, T/AT 6/96]
