JURISDICTION

— Jurisdiction cannot be extended or inferred in a forum even with permission, no objection or acquiescence of a party. [2024 CLS 26 = 2024 CLC 64]

— The doctrine of exhaustion of remedies prevents a litigant from seeking a remedy in a new court or jurisdiction until all claims or remedies have been exhausted (i.e. pursued as fully as possible) in the original one, and this doctrine was originally created on the principles of comity. [2023 SCLR 61 = 2023 SCMR 2075 = 2023 SCP 277]
