Social Studies

It means something like 'produce the body'

basically it means that you can't keep the person in prison if they are summoned to court

if they are summoned to court, you have to get the person to court. you can't say "oh, the prisoner is in prison so they can't go to court"

one reason habeas corpus might exist is say you got imprisoned by somebody who doesn't like you
if the habeas corpus didn't exist and the court said "hey, let's put this person on trial" then the prison commander (or whatever) could refuse and keep you in prison. forever.

so that's what habeas corpus means
it means 'produce the body'

Explanation:

The key issue here is that 100 pound is not much weight and also there are a number of states and localities that have passed laws against discrimitation on weight or height.

In the case study of Heidi, Heidi implemented a self-management project in which her goal was to stop using specific curse words
miskamm [114]

Heidi could tell their softball friends that she has a goal in life or a resolution to reduce the amount of curse words and he had set up a limit of bad words and she could try to involve her friends and explain why  according to his principles cursing is so bad. Another thing that she could do is convincing their coach and the people around the sofball game to take the same course of actions explaining why she made her resolution.
