habeas-corpus
Significado: A legal writ requiring that a person under arrest or detention be brought before a court, so that the lawfulness of their imprisonment may be examined.
Habeas corpus is one of the foundational safeguards of individual liberty in English common law, dating back to Magna Carta and formalised by the Habeas Corpus Act 1679. It prevents the state from detaining individuals indefinitely without judicial oversight. The writ compels the detaining authority to produce the prisoner and justify the detention. Suspension of habeas corpus — permitted in times of emergency — has historically been controversial. The term is frequently used in political commentary about civil liberties and the rule of law. It collocates with 'writ of,' 'right to,' 'suspension of,' and 'application for.'
