Jurisdiction

In the realm of jurisprudence, the issue of jurisdiction can be quite complicated. The select analyses provided in this book examine some of the myriad elements and considerations that arise in matters of jurisdiction. Included are: an overview of Congress's ability to participate in litigation before Article III courts; the interplay of borders, turf, cyberspace and jurisdiction; Indian tribal civil jurisdiction's reach over non-Indians; Supreme Court appellate jurisdiction over military court cases; federal jurisdiction in copyright registration; and challenges to "large" orders under federal contracts.
