A. Exclusive jurisdiction - Refers to a court that through judical order forces a case to remain under its control when circumstances of the case may allow it be handled in more than one jurisdiction or type of court (i.e. - civil court and bankruptcy court.) Concurrent jurisdiction - Referes to a case where one or more parts of the events (usually criminal cases) occured over more than one jurisdiction. As such the defendant is or has been tried in two seperate jurisdictions however, the courts have agreed that the defendant is subject to the orders or control of both jurisdictions at the same time. (i.e. - The judicial orders of one judge shall have the same binding effects as if the other judge had issued the order and vice versa) … [cont.]
