I believe this falls under 'change of venue'. A defendant or the prosecution may ask a judge to change the venue or to change the jurisdiction where the case is being prosecuted. This may be the case if a defendant believes he may get a fair trial. A jurisdictional defense is one based on whether the court has jurisdiction over the defendant. For example, if one has to be personally served but was served by some other, unauthorized means, the court may not have jurisdiction over that person. In other words that person has a jurisdictional defense to the action. If however, the person appears in court and does not raise the jurisdiction issue, he/she has waived that defense. Here's how this plays out. A plaintiff claims to have served a defendant with process. Once the defendant does not answer within the time prescribed by law, the plaintiff would then move for a default judgment. The defendant become aware of the default judgment when the plaintiff attempts to execute on it (e.g., restrain his bank account...) The defendant then files a motion/order to show cause asking the court to vacate the default judgment. The plaintiff agrees to vacate the judgment provided the defendant "waives jurisdictional defenses,"i.e. lack of personal service.

Waiver The voluntary surrender of a known right; conduct supporting an inference that a particular right has been relinquished. The term waiver is used in many legal contexts.
