In law enforcement, "concurrent jurisdiction" may exist, where a crime may be a local, state, and federal violation all at the same time.

The jurisdiction to quash a decision only exists when there has in fact been an error of law.

All courts have an independent obligation to determine whether subject-matter jurisdiction exists, even in the absence of a challenge from any party.

While the Board agreed that such jurisdiction did exist, it was limited and could not interfere with connecting undertakings.

In other places consolidated city-county jurisdictions exist, in which city and county functions are managed by a single municipal government.

Analogous jurisdiction existed in medieval times on the European Continent.

In civil procedure, exclusive jurisdiction exists where one court has the power to adjudicate a case to the exclusion of all other courts.

The relevant statute in those cases had provided simply that jurisdiction should exist over a married woman 'carrying on a trade separately from her husband.'

No such jurisdiction exists in the case of an expert.

Concurrent jurisdiction exists where two or more courts from different systems simultaneously have jurisdiction over a specific case.
