The following are some common grounds for writ of habeas corpus petitions: Introduction of new evidence that points to your innocence. Changes in the law. Incompetency during trial. Ineffective assistance of counsel. Conviction under unconstitutional law. Prosecutorial misconduct. No jurisdiction.
The term habeas corpus comes from the Latin meaning that you have the body of the detainee brought before the court or tribunal. Typically, a petition is used when asking for a writ of habeas corpus to be issued. The writ of habeas corpus commands the person in custody to be presented.
A writ of habeas corpus orders the custodian of an individual in custody to produce the individual before the court to make an inquiry concerning his or her detention, to appear for prosecution (ad prosequendum) or to appear to testify (ad testificandum).
Ask the court for a writ of habeas corpus (a court order telling a public official, like a prison warden, to bring you to the court and show a legal reason for holding you) to challenge your criminal conviction or commitment to another facility or the conditions under which you are being held.
Article I, Section 9, Clause 2: The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it.
