Summary

Existing law allows a person who is unlawfully imprisoned or restrained to prosecute a writ of habeas corpus to inquire into the cause of the imprisonment or restraint. Existing law allows a writ of habeas corpus to be prosecuted for, but not limited to, false evidence that is substantially material or probative to the issue of guilt or punishment that was introduced at trial and false physical evidence that was a material factor directly related to the plea of guilty of the person. This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to these provisions.
