Answer 3

Original Jurisdiction means the case can be brought to that court first, before being heard in a lower court.

Appellate Jurisdiction means the case can only be brought to that court after it has been heard in a lower court and the decision has been appealed.

Discretionary Jurisdiction means the court has the power to decide whether to hear a particular case brought before it.
