restrainedanother to produce the prisoner at a designated time and place so that
the court can determine the legality of custody anddecide whether to order the pri

prisoner's release. Habeas corpus relief also may be used to obtain custody of a c
hild or to gain the release of a detainedperson who is insane, is a drug addict, or h
as an infectious disease. Usually, however, it is a response to imprisonment bythe
criminal justice system.

ourts. An inmate in state or federal prisonasks for the writ by filing a petition wit
h the court that sentenced him or her. In most states, and in federal courts, the i

e the court. He or she also may receive anevidentiary hearing to establish evidenc
e for the petition.
