Court of Original Jurisdiction/Court of First Instance

Espero que te sirva
Peer comment(s):

disagree vhernandez : Jurisdiction in English adheres more to competence, however, this doesn't work because the appeal may relate to the fact that the trial or lower court had no original jursidiction or competence to provide a ruling. Hence, this would be an oxymoron.
