- Jurisdiction: (1) The legal authority of a court to hear and decide a case. Concurrent jurisdiction exists when two courts have simultaneous responsibility for the same case. (2) The geographic area over which the court has authority to decide cases.
- Litigation: A case, controversy, or lawsuit. Participants (plaintiffs and defendants) in lawsuits are called litigants.
After the creation of any consolidated special service district, notice of the creation, stating the boundaries of the district, shall be published one time in the official journal of the parish. Thirty days after such publication, the creation of the district shall become incontestable, and no court shall have jurisdiction to entertain litigation questioning the legality of the creation of such district. If the governing authority desires to call an election in any such district to authorize the issuance of bonds, the levy of special taxes, or the assumption of indebtedness, it may call such election and publish notice thereof prior to the expiration of the thirty-day period.
