Q&A: Writ of Habeus Corpus

Question:

A woman ran over and killed her friend after an altercation. She admitted the crime and was sentenced by a judge in a plea. She recieved maximum sentence. Would a writ of habeus corpus be of any benefit?
Answer:
Your best approach is to contact an attorney who practices appeals. A writ of habeus corpus is highly technical in nature and is driven by the facts and surrounding circumstances in each individual case. Additional information would be needed to properly advise you. Best of luck.
