Reply to comment by NemosGhost in TIL: During the US Civil War, a father issued a writ of habeus corpus to get his underaged Son out of the US Army, when the writ was delivered to the camp, the provost had both the lawyer who had delivered the writ, and the Judge who had issued the writ arrested and imprisoned. by hoosyourdaddyo
