Habeas corpus guarantees the right to be free unless charged with a crime.

Habeas corpus guarantees the right to be free unless charged with a crime. This means that a person cannot be detained or imprisoned indefinitely without being informed of the charges against them and without having the opportunity to challenge their detention in a fair trial. Habeas corpus is a legal principle that safeguards individual liberty by ensuring that the government has a justifiable reason to detain someone and that they are given a proper legal process to defend themselves. If a person believes their right to habeas corpus has been violated, they can seek legal recourse to challenge their detention.
