Terms Used In New Hampshire Revised Statutes 38:14
- 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.
A municipality, which has so acquired the plant, property, or facilities of a public utility in any other municipality, may operate within such other municipality as a public utility with the same rights and franchises which the owners of such outlying plant, as purchased, would have had such purchase not been made. The operation by a municipality outside its own limits shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the commission except as provided in RSA 362. If the outlying municipality shall itself vote to establish a municipal plant all the provisions of this chapter shall be binding as to such determination.
