Explanation:

Habeas corpus originally stems from the Assize of Clarendon, a re-issuance of rights during the reign of Henry II of England. The writ of habeas corpus originated in Medieval English common law. It’s difficult to say exactly where it first appeared in writing, but it was most famously codified in the 1215 Magna Carta, which granted all free men protection against illegal imprisonment.

Answer: writ of habeas corpus or habeas corpus comes Medieval Latin

Explanation:

Habeas corpus means "we, a Court, command that you have the body of the detainee brought before us". It is a recourse in law through which a person can report an unlawful detention or imprisonment to a court and request that the court order the custodian of the person, usually a prison official, to bring the prisoner to court, to determine whether the detention is lawful.
