Norwegian term or phrase: småkravsprosessen
I am translating the Bar Association's annual report.
One topic concerns the procedures required for obtaining a license to practice law in Norway.
There are a required number of cases. In addition...
En av sakene burde være en hovedforhandling eller muntlig behandling etter småkravsprosessen.

What is the British term for småkravsprosesen?

small claims proceedings
Explanation:
Surely it's small claims (could use a different word from proceedings, or even refer to it as "small claims courts", inferring cases/proceedings that take place in the small claims courts - I've seen Small Claims Courts as a translation on Google).
