Civil Court Jurisdiction in Contracts| Territorial & Pecuniary Jurisdiction| Barrister Kamran Ilyas

This video provides a comprehensive overview of the jurisdiction of civil courts with respect to contracts in Pakistan. It covers the following topics:
Territorial jurisdiction: This refers to the geographical area in which a civil court can hear and decide a case. In Pakistan, territorial jurisdiction is determined by the place where the contract was made, the place where the contract was performed, or the place where the cause of action arose.
Pecuniary jurisdiction: This refers to the monetary value of a case that a civil court can hear and decide. In Pakistan, pecuniary jurisdiction is determined by the value of the subject matter of the contract.
Subject matter jurisdiction: This refers to the type of cases that a civil court can hear and decide. In Pakistan, civil courts have jurisdiction over a wide range of cases, including contract disputes, property disputes, and family law disputes.
The video also discusses how to determine which court has jurisdiction to hear a particular contract dispute. In cases where two or more courts have jurisdiction, the plaintiff can choose to file the case in any of those courts.
