  If a lawful objection to a demand is lodged, an action is deemed to have been filed regarding the claim that the objection concerns, at the time that the application for the demand for payment was filed, with the summary court to which the court clerk issuing the demand for payment belongs or with the district court of jurisdiction for that locality, depending on the value of the subject matter of the claim. In such a case, expenses for the demand procedures constitute part of the court costs.
