Section 15-21-2 Persons entitled to prosecute writ - Persons confined for failure to enter
into undertaking to keep the peace. Any person confined in jail for failing to enter into
an undertaking to keep the peace may prosecute a writ of habeas corpus as provided in this
chapter; but such writ can be heard only by a judge of the circuit court, who may discharge
the applicant, remand him to jail or reduce the amount of the undertaking as may seem right.

1907, §7008; Code 1923, §4306; Code 1940, T. 15, §2.)...

confined as insane may prosecute a writ of habeas corpus as provided in this chapter; and,

petition for a writ of habeas corpus or from the documents thereunto annexed that the party
is imprisoned or detained by virtue of any process under which any other person has an interest
in continuing his imprisonment or restraint, the officer issuing the writ must endorse thereon
an order requiring the applicant, or someone else for him, to give notice to such person,
or to his attorney, of the issue of the writ and of the time and place at which it is returnable,
in order that he may, if he thinks proper, appear and object to the discharge of the party
who is imprisoned. If such notice is not given, when the party who is entitled to it is within
50 miles of the place of examination, the party who is imprisoned must not be discharged.
