Скачать или смотреть Federal Habeas Petitions - Who Can File a 2255?

The question isn't who can file. Any federal inmate can file a 2255 if there is merit to their argument.

Arguments in 2255 motions must be constitutionally-based. Is the violation being cited a violation of due process? Cruel and unusual punishment? A violation of the equal protection clause? Illegal search and seizure?

The bigger question is WHEN an inmate can file. The time limit to file a 2255 is one year after the latest of four dates found in 28 U.S.C. §2255(f).
