Answer:
Jurisdiction (from the Latin ius, iuris meaning "law" and dicere meaning "to speak") is the practical authority granted to a legal body to administer justice within a defined field of responsibility, e.g., Michigan tax law. In federations like the United States, areas of jurisdiction apply to local, state, and federal levels; e.g. the court has jurisdiction to apply federal law.
Explanation:
The U.S. Supreme Court exercises a right to preside over specific cases. This court holds original jurisdiction, or the right to hear a case based on the subject matter, like bankruptcy, federal law violation or disputes between states.
