You'll be able to make a bigger claim in small claims court in New Brunswick.
The provincial government has increased the limit on the monetary jurisdiction of the court to $20,000 from $12,500.
Justice Minister Denis Landry says the change will decrease the burden on the Court of Queen's Bench while giving all New Brunswickers, including small businesses, access to a simpler and less costly court process.
Small claims matters are heard by adjudicators across the province.
The last change in the monetary limit was in 2013 when it was increased to $12,500 from $6,000.
