Скачать или смотреть What Happens if the Petition for Habeas Corpus is Denied?

When your loved one has been Baker Acted, our usual course of action is to begin by filing an Emergency Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus.

This petition challenges the alleged criteria under which your loved one was detained. Typically, a petition for Habeas Corpus is enough to get your loved one released, but there are times that additional steps are necessary.
What happens next?

For instance, if a judge denies the petition for Habeas Corpus, that’s just the beginning of the legal journey. Our team of experienced attorneys will not leave your side until your loved one’s freedom is restored.

There are several steps we can take after a petition for Habeas Corpus has been denied. We can file another petition that includes additional facts that support your case. We can file a motion for reconsideration and ask the judge to take another look at the case. If the State has filed a Petition for continued detention we will attend that hearing so we can protect your loved one’s rights, and fight to secure their release.

In many cases, simply filing a case is enough to get the Baker Act facility to release your loved one. The facility doesn’t want to waste time on a court hearing or go to the trouble of paying their lawyers to respond to our petition, so they’ll often release your loved one just to avoid the hassle!

We will continue to fight for your family until your loved one is released.
