Paniningil ng Utang, Pinasimple ng Korte Suprema Mas mabilis at simpleng proseso ng paniningil ng pera ang isinusulong ngayon ng Korte Suprema sa ilalim ng revised small claims procedure. Imbes na taon ang aabutin, makakukuha na ng desisyon sa loob lamang ng 30 araw mula nang magsampa ng kaso.

Saklaw ng Small Claims Procedure ang paniningil ng salaping hindi hihigit ng P200,000. Kasama dito ang mga kasunduan mula sa pagpapaupa (lease), pagpapautang (loan), paggawa ng serbisyo (service), pagbebenta (sale), at pagsasangla (mortgage). Sa small claims, hindi kailangan ng abogado, mas madali ang proseso, at mas mura ang filing fees kumpara sa regular na kaso. SIMPLE. MABILIS. ABOT-KAYA.
