Which legal concept determines whether a court has authority over a particular defendant (as opposed to the court's proper geographic location)?

Options:

Personal jurisdiction
Venue
Subject-matter jurisdiction
Res judicata

Correct answer: Personal jurisdiction

Explanation: Personal jurisdiction is the court's power over a defendant; venue addresses the proper geographic forum (see 28 U.S.C. §1391 for federal venue rules). Personal jurisdiction concerns contacts and fairness to the defendant.
