| Abstract from DBPedia | Jurisdiction (from Latin juris 'law' + dictio 'declaration') is the legal term for the legal authority granted to a legal entity to enact justice. In federations like the United States, areas of jurisdiction apply to local, state, and federal levels. Jurisdiction draws its substance from international law, conflict of laws, constitutional law, and the powers of the executive and legislative branches of government to allocate resources to best serve the needs of society.裁判管轄（さいばんかんかつ）または司法管轄（しほうかんかつ、英: jurisdiction）とは、国家の司法権・裁判権の存在を前提として、その裁判権の裁判所間における分担に関する管轄をいう。管轄のある裁判所を管轄裁判所という。 (Source: http://dbpedia.org/resource/Jurisdiction) |
