Learners often confuse "jurisdiction" with general "law" or "justice". "Jurisdiction" is about who has the legal power to make decisions, not about whether something is fair. Learners also sometimes say *"jurisdiction on"* instead of the usual pattern "jurisdiction over" (e.g., "The court has jurisdiction over the case").
