2014(See Schwartz v. United States (9th Cir. 1992) 954 F.2d 569, 572 [‘section 362(d) gives the bankruptcy court wide latitude in crafting relief from the automatic stay, including the power to grant retroactive relief from the stay’].)

1975At any time after the time for appeal has run, the defendant may file a motion to vacate the judgment (or to set aside a plea of guilty) in the trial court which rendered the original judgment of conviction of driving under the influence of intoxicating liquor since a trial court has no jurisdiction to render a judgment obtained in violation of a person’s constitutional rights (Thomas v. Department of Motor Vehicles (1970) 3 Cal.3d 335, 338 [ 90 Cal.Rptr. 586 , 475 P.2d 858 ]; Gonzalez v. Municipal Court (1973) 32 Cal.App.3d 706, 710 [ 108 Cal.Rptr. 612 ]).

1979We have concluded that the factual circumstances bring this case within the principle stated in In re Winchester (1960) 53 Cal.2d 528 [ 2 Cal.Rptr. 296 , 348 P.2d 904 ], that “Habeas corpus has become a proper remedy in this state to collaterally attack a judgment of conviction which has been obtained in violation of fundamental constitutional rights.” (Id., at p. 531.) Although petitioner has been convicted of no crime, she is no less entitled to the protection of her fundamental constitutional rights, and a judgment obtained in violation of those rights is similarly vulnerable to collateral

Allen v. Allen green

1981The court reasoned that since a judgment obtained in violation of the act is not void, but voidable upon a showing of prejudice by the serviceman ( Allen, supra, 30 Cal. 2d 433 ), the court at the hearing of June 12, 1978, must have determined Rosendo was not prejudiced by his absence; that the letter written to Dona’s attorney prior to the hearing of June 12, 1978, and submitted to the court by Dona’s attorney was a sufficient response by Rosendo for the court to conclude the ability of Rosendo to protect his interests was not materially affected by reason of his military service.
