The District Court lacks jurisdiction to entertain a claim for payment of monies due under a mortgage where the monetary claim exceeds $600,000 because section 37(1)(c) applies only to equitable proceedings for foreclosure, redemption or enforcing charges and does not extend the District Court's monetary jurisdiction for personal debt enforcement under a mortgage.
