Jurisdiction of cases is determined by the law, which contains the criteria for determining
the different levels of courts in which a civil case is to be considered. The presence of such
criteria allows the court, as well as persons involved in the case, to avoid ambiguity in the
issue at hand. At the same time, civil and arbitration laws provide for exceptions (arising
under specific circumstances), to which the parties also file a petition for consideration of
the case at the location of most of the evidence. However, in practice, at the stage of deciding
whether to accept a claim, these circumstances are difficult to identify. The article discusses
some of the problems that arise in determining jurisdiction by the location of most of the
evidence. The authors noted the need to amend procedural legislation, specify the provisions
of the law regarding the direction of cases at the location of most evidence, in particular
about the possibility of referring cases to another court if there is no technical ability to
use videoconferencing and exclusive jurisdiction is not violated. In addition, a petition to
refer the case to the location of the majority of the evidence shall be considered only after
examining all the evidence in the case.

Keywords: ruling of jurisdiction; major part of evidence; procedural request; trial; civil
procedure.
