I'll add to Nevada's response: NCAA specifically defines jumpstop; FED does not. The rule is the same in all codes, though.
Here's the NCAAM wording:
Section 22. Jump Stop
Art. 1. A jump stop is executed when a player catches the ball while moving or
dribbling with:
a. One foot on the playing court, jumps off that foot and lands simultaneously
on both feet (no pivot foot).
b. Two feet off the playing court, lands on one foot, jumps off that foot and
lands simultaneously on both feet (no pivot foot).
Art. 2. A jump stop may also be executed when the dribbler has one foot on the
playing court, initiates a jump off that foot, ends the dribble with both feet off the
playing court and lands simultaneously on both feet (either foot can be established
as the pivot foot).
