Jurisdiction is a broad term. In the general sense jurisdiction refers to legal authority over a certain geographic area, over a particular issue or over a person. In this sense referred to in the question, a jurisdiction is a geographical area under the control of a defined legal authority.
For example, each state in the United States has jurisdiction over most legal matters within its borders. Each has its own law codes that may vary from state to state. The authority of the federal government spans all states in certain matters and with exceptions. Towns and counties are jurisdictions and to some extent have powers that are independent of state and federal governments. For example, in Massachusetts the county Family Court has jurisdiction over cases involving child custody of minors who live in the county. A town has jurisdiction over such issues as dog laws, noise ordinances, where you can install a fence or what you can build in your neighborhood.

Can you carry a concealed weapon in your car if you have a state issued license to do so?
A CHL pertains to a person carrying the weapon and/or have the weapon is his possession or under his control. While this does not specifically include his or her vehicle, the argument is whether or not he is currently in control of said firearm. If you are driving the vehicle and responsible for the contents, a concealed firearm in the glove compartment would be covered by your license because, although it is not on your person, it would still be considered in your possession. This does not, however, necessarily cover all instances though. The license only covers a firearm that you could reasonably claim to be "in your possession". (This is not true in all states. In some states, the firearm must be physically in your possession and in others, only in arms reach. Even the definition of "arm's reach" varies state to state. In Texas, for example, "arm's reach" includes the back seat, whereas other states specifically don't. This is also affected by passengers in the vehicle.)

Can you drive a semi-tractor on private property without a CDL license in CT?
The federal regs state that you're not even supposed to be in actual physical control of a CMV if you don't have at least a learner's permit appropriate to the class of vehicle. Some states allow an exception to vehicles operated on private property, in spite of the federal law. At this time, I'm unable to find anything regarding CT's law on this. Even if the state does grant such an exemption, one needs to check the insurance policy, which may be declared void if an accident is caused by an unlicenced operator, even if on private property in a state which has such an exemption in their log books.
How does someone get picked for jury duty?
The jury duty list is generally taken from the list of persons who have drivers licenses throughout the state. It had been the practice many years ago that only persons owning land would be selected but this was abolished as being unfair to persons not owning property, because they would have persons perhaps not in their social class judging them. Later, the jury lists were taken from voter registration records, but this was also abolished in virtually all jurisdictions, because people could avoid jury duty by simply not voting. This was a double dereliction of civic responsibility.
If you have never been called for duty but want to serve, you can contact the local or state jury commission to volunteer to be put into the general pool of people to be called at random.
