Docket entry
002301 Nelson v. Warden 09/14/2001 In an original habeas corpus application, the petitioner did not preserve the error in a juvenile court's failure to give his father notice of proceedings and did not raise the issue for many years prior to this petition. Because petitioner's convictions were merely voidable, his failure to raise the issue in a timely manner constitutes a waiver of the error and results in dismissal of this petition.

Courts at different levels and stages can reach different results in the same case. Each entry is the court's own record; read it before drawing a conclusion.
No official record has been found at this time. We are watching for updates.
Method: an entry is marked with an outcome only when its own text contains the outcome word, and the word is shown beside it. Orders, opinions and judgments whose text does not say are marked Other. Party filings, notices and routine procedural orders (appearances, extra pages, time extensions, scheduling) are not listed; 1 such entry was left out of this case. No link between this case and any other case is recorded in our data, so only this case's own record is shown. Open the court's docket
