Personal jurisdiction. Personal jurisdiction is a court's jurisdiction over the parties to a lawsuit, as opposed to subject-matter jurisdiction, which is jurisdiction over the law and facts involved in the suit.

Most states recognize residence and business location for personal jurisdiction. For cases involving online vendors, the concept of minimal contacts can be used.
