What is an order making a jailer show that a person is in jail for a good reason is what?
It's called 'a writ of Habeas corpus.' You can ask a judge for one. He issues it, you take it to the jailer, and the jailer (or district attorney or police representative) app…ears in the judge's court and justifies the detention of the person in jail. If they can't justify detention to the judge's satisfaction (and the satisfaction of the law), and if there are no other pending charges, the judge may order the detainee to be set free. (MORE)
