None of the above

The correct answer is: Venue

The geographic district or location in which a case is tried and from which the jury is selected is called the venue. This refers to the specific location where the trial will take place, and determines which laws and procedures will be used. Option A, jurisdiction, refers to the power of a court or government to make legal decisions and judgments. Option C, original jurisdiction, refers to the power of a court to hear a case for the first time, as opposed to having the case appealed to them from a lower court. Option D, none of the above, is incorrect because the correct answer is B, venue. Therefore, the best choice for this question is option B, venue.
