Jurisdictional

“Jurisdictional” 是一个法律术语,指与管辖权、权限或法律支配范围有关的事情。它描述的是某个机构(如法院、政府、警察局)在法律上有权做出决定或采取行动的范围。

  1. “There was a jurisdictional dispute between the city and state police.” (市警察局和州警察局之间发生了管辖权纠纷。)
  2. “The case was dismissed because it fell outside the court’s jurisdictional limits.” (此案因超出法院的管辖范围而被驳回。)
  3. “They are discussing jurisdictional boundaries for the new international waters agreement.” (他们正在讨论新的国际海域协议的管辖边界。)
  • Juris: 源自拉丁语 “jus”,意为“法律”。
  • Dic: 源自拉丁语 “dicere”,意为“说”或“宣判”。
  • 所以 “Jurisdiction” 原意是“宣示法律”。
  • 前缀: juris- (法律)
  • 词中: diction (言语,宣称)
  • 后缀: -al (形容词后缀)

在法律剧中(如《金装律师》或《法律与秩序》),经常会出现 “jurisdictional issues”。这是因为不同的执法机构往往会为了争夺一个高关注度案件的调查权而产生矛盾。

  • 相关词汇: jurisdiction (名词, 管辖权), jurisprudence (法理学)

拆分记忆:Juris (法) + dict (说) + ion + al。法律赋予说话权的领域,即“管辖权的”。

“The two local councils had a jurisdictional argument over which one was responsible for repairing the old bridge that stood right on the border between their towns. While they argued about maps and legal papers, the bridge continued to crumble. Finally, they agreed to share the responsibility and move past the jurisdictional red tape.” (两个地方议会为了谁该负责修理那座正好位于两镇边界上的旧桥而产生了管辖权争执。当他们在争论地图和法律文件时,桥梁继续崩塌。最终,他们同意共同承担责任,摆脱了管辖权方面的官僚作风。)
