The right way to iterate on a list inside list is     iterate on the general list for int i   0   i  lt  collection size     i          ArrayList lt String gt  currentList   collection get i         now iterate on the current list     for  int j   0  j  lt  currentList size    j              String s   currentList get 1

listOfSomething Clear    listOfSomething Add  first    collection Add listOfSomething     You are clearing the list here and adding one element   first    the 1st reference of listOfSomething is updated as well sonce both reference the same object  so when you access the second element myList get 1   which does not exist anymore  you get the null   Notice both collection Add listOfSomething   save two references to the same arraylist object    You need to create two different instances for two elements   ArrayList lt ArrayList lt String gt  gt  collection   new ArrayList lt ArrayList lt String gt  gt      ArrayList lt String gt  listOfSomething1   new ArrayList lt String gt     listOfSomething1 Add  first    listOfSomething1 Add  second     ArrayList lt String gt  listOfSomething2   new ArrayList lt String gt     listOfSomething2 Add  first     collection Add listOfSomething1       collection Add listOfSomething2

A cleaner way of iterating the lists is      initialise the collection collection   new ArrayList lt ArrayList lt String gt  gt        iterate for  ArrayList lt String gt  innerList   collection        for  String string   innerList               do stuff with string

Because the second element is null after you clear the list   Use    String s   myList get 0     And remember  index 0 is the first element
