(a)On motion of a party or on the judicial authority's own motion, the judicial authority may order a case transferred from the expedited process track to the regular docket if any of the following apply:

(1) the movant is a substitute, added or impleaded party who became a party to the case after it was placed on the expedited process track and objects to such placement;

(2) after a case was placed on the expedited process track it was consolidated for trial with a case not eligible for that track or in which any of the parties decline to consent to having the matter proceed as an expedited process case; or

(3) the judicial authority determines that good cause exists for the transfer.

(b)The judicial authority shall order a case transferred from the expedited process track to the regular docket upon the filing of an affidavit by the plaintiff or the plaintiff's attorney, with supporting documentation, stating that subsequent to the filing of plaintiff's consent to expedited process track placement the affiant has learned that the damages which may be recovered exceed $75,000, exclusive of interests and costs.
