What is the effect on a lawsuit if the person suing brings his or her case to a court that does not have the proper jurisdiction to hear the case?


If a court does not have proper jurisdiction, it (the court) has no legitimate right by which judges can exercise their authority. Thus, in this case, the lawsuit could not be heard. The attorneys would need to reschedule the suit for a hearing in the proper court (i.e., the court with the proper jurisdiction).
