The present paper extends the results of recent works that investigated semidiscrete error estimation in the linear and semilinear case and fully discrete error estimation in the nonlinear case. Stronger results for convergence of a posteriori error estimates for the semidiscrete finite element method of lines for a nonlinear parabolic initial-boundary value problem are presented. The results can be used as a basis for an adaptive numerical procedure that carries out the fully discrete computation with an arbitrary time discretization.
