  • Federal jurisdiktion i USA innebär att det berör ett område där USA:s kongress har befogenhet att stifta lag i enlighet med USA:s konstitution, vilket får till följd att den federala statsmakten och dess rättsvårdande myndigheter har laga befogenhet att utreda, åtala och döma. Ytterst är det USA:s högsta domstol som uttolkar hur och vad som den federala jurisdiktionen innefattar. Under från 1900-talets början har den federala jurisdiktionen ökat, från att varit nästan obefintlig i början av seklet till införandet av Patriot Act efter 11 september-attackerna 2001, där allt fler brott numera faller inom ramen för federal jurisdiktion. Relationer till andra suveräna stater ligger under federal jurisdiktion, samt i vissa fall förhållandet till de inhemska indiannationerna. Rätten att förklara krig tillfaller också kongressen. (sv)
