7 GCA § 4202: Jurisdiction.

Any person having a claim of $10,000 or less may apply for relief through the Small Claim Division. Counterclaims or cross-claims may also be filed for up to $10,000. If a bona fide counterclaim or cross-claim is in excess of $10,000, the matter shall be handled as a regular civil, or other case. No attorney’s fee may be awarded in small claim cases. Any person having a claim against him or her for more than $5,000 may make a timely application to the court for transfer of the matter out of the Small Claims Division to be handled as a regular civil or other case within the Superior Court of Guam, which motion, if timely made, shall be granted as a matter of right.
