Courts obtain ____________ jurisdiction over a defendant by the defendant having violated the law of the particular sovereign while within the forum state.
The correct answer to the following question will be "Personal".
Explanation:
Personal jurisdiction relates to the ability of the court to decide as to whether a party is being charged in a trial.
Before such a court can assert its authority over a faction, the constitution of the U.S. requires the party to have certain minimum connections with the institution where the court works.
Courts are given special authority over the offender by the offender who has broken the law of the individual sovereign although in the forum territory.
This means that a judge does have the authority or power to make a decision that affects an individual. To order for a jury to be able to decide in a legal case, the defendant should have "personal authority" over all of the claimants to a certain legal case.
