"Restricted Jurisdiction" is a term closely associated with "Special Appearance" which indicates to the court that its jurisdiction is restricted to only hearing arguments regarding the determination of jurisdiction.
All courts have the jurisdiction to determine jurisdiction. In the face of a direct challenge to jurisdiction, the court must limit itself to addressing that issue first before proceeding.
