Venue一词通常表示（事件）发生的场所；或者（活动）的举办场所。

在法律语境下表示“审判地、可对案件实施管辖权的司法辖区”。

“审判地”指的是具有管辖权的法院或法院可以审理和确定案件的特定县或地理区域。英国，依普通法规则，对刑事案件应在犯罪行为实施地进行审判，但现在的制定法也允许对某些案件可移至别处审判。

如：He couldn't even get a change of venue.

他甚至连更变审判地点都争取不到。

Jurisdiction一词在法律语境下表示“管辖权”，是法院审判案件或者签发命令的权力。法院的“管辖权”是指该法院判决案件的固有权力。而审判地是指审判的地点，即具有对人和对事管辖权的法院可以审理该某个具体的案件。

如：The British police have no jurisdiction over foreign bank accounts.

英国警方对外国银行的账户没有司法管辖权。

在法律英语中，jurisdiction一词还可以表示

①法庭体系

②司法；司法权

③管辖范围
