Get a grip on your lack of context. If you know anything about this case, you know that Moore openly took the position that the court COULD NOT ENFORCE any order it issed and that he had no intention of complying. That is a bit different than claiming lack of jurisdiction - but, of course, you probably have the sense to realize that this was straight up federal question jurisdiction.

I'm not saying that this case was a case where jurisdiction was implicated, but your statement that I critcized was much more universal.

Besides, the Court could not enforce the order without the help of the legislative and executive branches. Congress voted to withhold funding for any enforcement of the order and there is no indication that Bush had any intention of calling out the U.S. Marshals. Therefore, the Court COULD NOT ENFORCE (I like to use capital letters too) the order.
