Jurisdiction
The concept that any given court is only able to deal with certain issues, being those which fall within its 'jurisdiction'.
The jurisdiction of any court may be limited with reference to the type of issue concerned (e.g. the family courts), the amount in dispute or the country or countries with which the dispute or the parties to it have a connection.
Parties to a loan agreement will expressly submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of a specified jurisdiction.
These need not be (but usually are) the courts of the country whose law has been chosen as the proper law of the agreement.
