Original passage:
The legal system is made up of civil courts, criminal courts and especially courts such as family law courts and bankruptcy court. Each court has its own jurisdiction, which refers to the cases that the court is allowed to hear. In some instances, a case can only be heard in one type of court. For example, a bankruptcy case must be heard in a bankruptcy court. In other instances, there may be several potential courts with jurisdiction. For example, a federal criminal court and a state criminal court would each have jurisdiction over a crime that is a federal drug offence but that is also an offence on the state level. 


Plagiarism Passage:
The legal system is comprised of criminal and civil courts and specialty courts like bankruptcy and family law courts. Every one of the courts is vested with its own jurisdiction. Jurisdiction means the types of cases each court is permitted to rule on. Sometimes, only one type of court can hear a particular case. For instance, bankruptcy cases can be ruled on only in bankruptcy court. In other situations, it is possible for more than one court to have jurisdiction. For instance, both a state and federal criminal court could have authority over a criminal case that is illegal under federal and state drug laws. 



Explanation:
As you can see it is obvious that the writer just rearranging the words and don’t paraphrase it. The writer just copies and paste the words and ideas without citing the source or the author’s idea. It is important to cite the source and paraphrase by not just rearranging them but using different words in your own.
