What does Arizona's tiered discovery system mean for Maricopa County exhibits?
Arizona assigns civil cases to Tier 1, 2 or 3 by damages claimed (Tier 1: $50,000 or less; Tier 2: more than $50,000 and less than $300,000; Tier 3: $300,000 or more), and each tier carries its own discovery limits, so check your tier before finalizing exhibit lists.
Is AZTurboCourt mandatory for Maricopa County civil filings?
Not exclusively: the Arizona Superior Court offers e-filing through both eFileAZ and AZTurboCourt, and AZTurboCourt may be used for civil cases in all counties, including Maricopa County; check the portal for the current file-size limit and PDF requirements.
Does Maricopa County have a specialized court for commercial cases?
Yes, a commercial court track exists with specialized procedures for qualifying business disputes, alongside a separate complex litigation division for large or technically demanding cases -- both distinct from the general civil docket.
