Principle of jurisdiction in Nepal

Principle of jurisdiction in Nepal

Jurisdiction determines which court has the authority to hear a case, ensuring legal clarity and fairness in judicial proceedings. Under Nepal’s Muluki Civil Procedure Code 2074, jurisdiction is defined by factors such as subject matter, territorial scope, and party presence. It categorizes authority across district courts for immovable property, contracts, and multiple-defendant cases. Jurisdiction ensures that legal actions are enforceable and valid, safeguarding both procedural efficiency and rule of law. At Alpine Law Associates, we help clients navigate the jurisdictional complexities to ensure their cases are filed in the correct court with rightful authority.
