Diversity jurisdiction is a basis for federal courts to exercise jurisdiction if the parties to a civil cause of action are residents of different states and the amount in controversy is large enough to make use of federal resources practical. A state may legitimately exercise jurisdiction either if it has in rem jurisdiction over the property or in personam jurisdiction over all parties to the dispute.

Unless it is a matter of exclusive federal jurisdiction, the state court maintains concurrent jurisdiction.
What are the conditions that give a federal court jurisdiction in a case as opposed to a State Court?

What proves jurisdiction?
This is a complicated question. There are two court systems in America; the state courts and the federal courts. State courts are courts of general jurisdiction, they can try any case under any law between any parties. Federal courts are courts of limited jurisdiction. The federal courts can only hear cases under "federal question jurisdiction" and "diversity jurisdiction" Federal question is when the case is being tried on a federal law. For example, a person who is suing their employer under Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act for disparate treatment discrimination (a federal law) can sue in federal court. Diversity jurisdiction is a little more complicated. To establish diversity jurisdiction, you must be suing a person from another state over a controversy of over $75,000. For example, if a Wisconsin resident is suing a minnesota resident for burning down his $100,000 house, he can sue in federal court. Hope this helps.
