A party who is dissatisfied with the outcome in the trial court would proceed to a court with appellate jurisdiction, which has the authority to review and revise the decision of the lower court. Courts with original jurisdiction are the trial courts where cases are initially filed, while ultimate jurisdiction refers to the highest court in the legal system. Geographic jurisdiction determines the geographical area over which the court has authority to hear cases.
