Types of prisoner petitions:
Habeas corpu. The government is accountable to the courts for a person’s imprisonment.
Civil rights. The amendment prohibits the States from “depriv[ing] any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law.”
Mandamus. The writ of mandamus – like habeas corpus – is an extraordinary remedy based in common law that is used when the plaintiff had no other adequate means to attain the desired relief.
