Why do you want a higher court? That is not the case to my knowledge, however I'm not an attorney; I would simply go through normal rent court.

In NC, the limit is the limit. If your claim is over the $5000 limit, you must file in the higher court. The court clerk will not accept a complaint demanding more than the court's limit.

Generally you would have to file in a higher court if your limit is in excess of the 2k. Keep in mind though that the percentage of "actual" collection of a judgement is pretty small. The costs are greater in a higher court and some even require an attorney to file on your behalf. It is probably a good idea to weigh the cost against the gain.
