AFFIRMED

GRIFFEN.C.J., DAUKSCH and PETERSON ,JJ., concur.

ON MOTION FOR REHEARING

DAUKSCH, J.

Appellant has moved for rehearing. We consider his motion as one for clarification and say that the trial court correctly ruled that it was without jurisdiction to consider his claim because it did not meet the jurisdictional amount threshold of $15,000. Therefore, appellant must file his claim in county court. The motion for rehearing is otherwise denied.

MOTION GRANTED IN PART; DENIED IN PART.

GRIFFIN, C.J., and PETERSON, J., concur.
