7. Jurisdiction
Jurisdiction generally describes any authority over a certain area or certain persons.
In the law, jurisdiction sometimes refers to a particular geographic area containing a defined legal authority.
For example, the federal government’s jurisdiction spans the entire United States.
Each state is also a jurisdiction unto itself, with the power to pass its own laws.
Smaller geographic areas, such as counties and cities, are separate jurisdictions to the extent that they have powers that are independent of the federal and state governments.
Jurisdiction also may refer to the origin of a court's authority. A court may be designated either as a court of general jurisdiction or as a court of special jurisdiction. A court of general jurisdiction is a trial court that is empowered to hear all cases that are not specifically reserved for courts of special jurisdiction. A court of special jurisdiction is empowered to hear only certain kinds of cases.

8. Venue Venue is similar to, but separate from, jurisdiction.
The venue of a case is the physical location of the courthouse in which the case is tried.
If more than one court has both subject matter and personal jurisdiction over a case, the court that first receives the case can send the case, upon request of one of the parties, to a court in another jurisdiction.
Unlike jurisdiction, venue does not involve a determination of a court's inherent authority to hear a case.
