International Jurisdiction Law and Legal Definition
International jurisdiction refers to the power of a court or other organization to hear and determine matters between different countries or persons of different countries or foreign state. For the peaceful exercise of international jurisdiction the powers between the federal government and state government must be properly distributed. Generally there are three theories upon which the exercise of international jurisdiction depends. They are the utilitarian theory, the deontological theory, and the political theory.
