Falling under means being included in or subject to a category, rule, or authority.
A crime might fall under federal jurisdiction; a purchase might fall under warranty coverage; a topic might fall under someone's area of expertise.
That falls under the heading of "not my problem." The phrase suggests classification or subordination to something larger.
