What are the consequences of a Jurisdictional error in making an order voidable?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from ASAP Copy & Print v. Canon Bus. Solutions, Inc., B224295, B225702 (Cal. App. 2012):

Jurisdictional errors may be of two types: a court may lack fundamental authority over the subject matter, question presented, or party, making its judgment void, or it can merely act in excess of its jurisdiction or defined power, making the judgment voidable. (In re Marriage of Goddard (2004) 33 Cal.4th 49, 56.) Orders which are void - as opposed to orders which are merely voidable - are a nullity and may be attacked at any time by parties or nonparties to the action. (Moore v. Kaufman, supra, 189 Cal.App.4th at p. 616.)
