If an action cognizable before the Superior Court, Law Division, Special Civil Part is brought in the Superior Court, Law Division and if the plaintiff obtains judgment for an amount not exceeding the jurisdictional limit of the Special Civil Part exclusive of costs, the plaintiff may be allowed costs, but not exceeding the amount allowable in the Special Civil Part.

This section shall not extend to any action in which the title to real estate may, in any way, come in question, nor to any action in which the judge before whom it is tried shall, immediately after the verdict or the finding, certify that, in his judgment, the action should have been brought in the division and part of the Superior Court in which it was instituted.
