Analysis

No analysis yet. When one exists it is a model's reading of this opinion — the rulings it reviewed, whether it agrees with the court, and the authorities it checked — shown beside the court's own disposition, never in place of it. How analyses are made.

Opinion — Morrison

MORRISON, C. J.

Petitioner prays to be discharged on habeas corpus. It appears from the return of the officer having the defendant in custody that he is held under an information charging him with forgery. I do not deem it a proper exercise of authority to discharge the defendant, under the circumstances of the case.

Writ dismissed and prisoner remanded.
