Answer:

A U.S. court will probably not examine the validity of this act commit­ted by China within its own territory, under Territorial Jurisdiction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lack of Jurisdiction in Law and it Legal Definition/implications -

Lack of jurisdiction means lack of power or authority to act in a particular manner or to give a particular kind of relief. It refers to a court's total lack of power or authority to entertain a case or to take cognizance of a crime.

Therefore, Territorial Jurisdiction is the authority confined to a bounded space, including all those present therein, and events which occur there.

Jurisdiction in the courts of a particular state may be determined by the location of real property in a state (in rem jurisdiction), or whether the parties are located within the state (in personam jurisdiction).
