California Codes, Code of Civil Procedure - CCP, Part 2 — Of Civil Actions, Title 10 — Actions in Particular Cases, Chapter 9 — Validating Proceedings, Section 866
The court hearing the action shall disregard any error, irregularity, or omission which does not affect the substantial rights of the parties.
Notes
Requires the court hearing the action to disregard any error, irregularity, or omission that does not affect the substantial rights of the parties. The provision therefore makes an effect on substantial rights the stated threshold for whether such a procedural defect may matter in the court’s handling of the action.
