Provides that the minimum amount in controversy in a civil case for which there shall be an appeal of right to a court of record shall be annually adjusted by a percentage equal to the annual rate of inflation, as calculated by referring to the Consumer Price Index for all urban consumers (CPI-U), as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor. Currently, there shall be an appeal of right to a court of record from any order entered or judgment rendered in a court not of record in a civil case in which the matter in controversy is of greater value than $50.
