Legal Question

I am in Allegheny County PA and I think a collection agency is trying to serve me through registered mail. My understanding is that a case like this has likelt been lodged with a district magistrate rather that in the Court of Common Pleas. If this is the case, what is the maximum dollar amount that can be heard in front of a magistrate?
