Errors of Judgment v. Errors of Jurisdiction Flashcards

Q
Differentiate between errors of judgment v. errors of jurisdiction.
A
Errors of judgment are correctible by appeal. Errors of judgment are grounds for reversal only if it is shown that prejudice has been caused thereby.
Errors of jurisdiction are reviewable in an original action for certiorari. Errors of jurisdiction render a judgment void or, at least, voidable.
