In small claims court, you generally cannot take real property cases, as these courts typically handle disputes involving smaller amounts of money and less complex issues. Real property cases, such as evictions or disputes over property ownership, usually fall under the jurisdiction of higher courts. However, some small claims courts may allow claims related to property damage or rental disputes, as long as they meet the monetary limits and guidelines set by the court. Always check local regulations for specific rules.
