In federal cases, the Rules of Federal Criminal Procedure allow such pleas, with the court's permission. *[https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/nolo\_contendere](https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/nolo_contendere)*
148
What is Writ of Habeas Corpus?
*Latin: produce the body* A court order demanding that a public official (such as a warden) deliver an imprisoned individual to the court and show a **valid reason for that person's detention**. The **procedure** provides a means for prison inmates, or others acting on their behalf, **to dispute the legal basis for confinement**. Habeas corpus has deep roots in English common law. Often, the court holds a hearing on the matter, during which the inmate and the government can both present evidence about whether there is a **lawful basis for jailing the person.** The court may also issue and enforce subpoenas in order to obtain additional evidence. Depending on what the evidence reveals, the judge may grant the inmate relief such as: Release from prison Reduction in the sentence An order halting illegal conditions of confinement, or A declaration of rights. **It's important not to confuse habeas corpus with the right of direct appeal.** Criminal defendants are always entitled to appeal a conviction or sentence to a higher court, which then reviews the trial judge's rulings. Habeas corpus provides a separate avenue for challenging imprisonment, and is normally used after a direct appeal has failed. It often serves as a last resort for inmates who insist that a miscarriage of justice has occurred.
