Jurisdiction refers to the legal authority of a court or other governing body to hear and decide on cases, enforce laws, and administer justice within a specific geographic area or over certain types of legal matters. It can be classified into different types, such as personal jurisdiction (over individuals), subject matter jurisdiction (over specific types of cases), and territorial jurisdiction (geographic boundaries). Understanding jurisdiction is crucial for determining where a legal case can be filed and adjudicated.
