Private international law refers to the body of domestic legal rules developed within States to resolve legal issues containing a foreign element and the questions that arise as to which court has jurisdiction and which law applies. Since each domestic legal system has its own rules, giving rise to potential conflicts, the field of private international law is also known as "conflict of laws," especially in common-law jurisdictions. 3, record 1, English, - private%20international%20law
