∙ 7y agoWith appellate jurisdiction, the case must already have been heard and ruled on in a court with original jurisdiction (or a lower appellate court) before it can by considered by an appellate court. There have been plenty of instances that a case was refused because the plaintiff was trying to by-pass the correct court with original jurisdiction.
