habeas corpus


Explanation:
Latin term which means "you have the body" and is not translated into Portuguese (use latin term). Name of various writs, having for their object to bring a party before a court or judge. Primary function of writ is to release from unlawful imprisonment. Not to determine prisoner's guilt or innocence but whether he is restrained of his liberty by due process.
