It means that a sentence has a punctuation mark in the wrong place. This would typically be a comma, or an ending mark such as (period, exclamation point, or question mark) wrongly added or placed.

Examples:

When the autumn comes the leaves, turn colors. (comma goes after comes)

He said "I'm running late!". (the period is not used, nor any doubled end mark)
