Jurisdiction is the area in which a person or institution has authority. It has particular reference to courts and legislatures, but can refer to any kind of official. Jurisdiction can be a geographical or conceptual area. E.g. "I'm sorry sir, I know you're a policeman in Texas, but you have no jurisdiction in Alberta, so hand over your gun." describes a geographical area. "Yes Mrs. Smith, I know you would like the Town Council to pass a by-law cutting off diplomatic relations with Russia, but Foreign Relations is not in the Council's jurisdiction." describes a conceptual jurisdiction.
Jurisdiction refers to the authority or power of a court or legal body to hear and decide cases within a specific geographic area or over certain subject matters. It is the legal authority to interpret and apply the law.
Original jurisdiction only applies to courts that hear cases before any appeals can be made. -Apex
