Jurisdiction refers to the authority of a court to hear and decide cases. Cases typically fall under jurisdiction based on factors such as the geographical location of the parties involved, the subject matter of the dispute, and the parties' consent. Common categories include civil cases (like contracts and torts), criminal cases (involving violations of law), and administrative cases (involving government agencies). Additionally, federal courts have jurisdiction over cases involving federal law or disputes between states.
