Helo,

local labels are assigned to the nearest global labels/procedures

Code:

proc1:
jmp .label666 ; this jumps to next line (proc1.label666)
.label666:
mov ax,3
;jump a local label above or below(inside a local block between 2 global labels)
jmp .label666 ; this jumps to proc1.label666
ret
proc2:
.label666:
mov ax,2
jmp .label666 ; this jumps to proc2.label666
ret
proc3:
.label666:
mov ax,1
ret

;now, if you want to jump on a local label from outside a block
jmp proc3.labl666 ; jumps local .label666 after global proc3 label
jmp proc1.labl666 ; jumps local .label666 after global proc1 label
