OPINION

CORCORAN, Justice.

We accepted this petition for review to determine whether the amendment to A.R.S. § 22-201 repealed jurisdiction of the superior courts granted in forfeiture actions pursuant to A.R.S. § 13-4302 in cases involving property valued at $5,000 or less. We hold that it did not. We have jurisdiction pursuant to Ariz. Const. art. 6, § 5(3), and rule 23, Arizona Rules of Civil Appellate Procedure.
