Legal protection for detained people to argue in court that they are being held illegally
Habeas corpus (from Medieval Latin, lit. 'that you have the body') is a recourse in law by which a report can be made to a court in the events of unlawful detention or imprisonment, requesting that the court order the person's custodian (usually a prison official) to bring the prisoner to court, to determine whether their detention is lawful.
