Question juridique clé
Whether the constitutional complaint was admissible and could seek immediate release from detention.
Solution extraite
The complaint was admissible in principle, and in a personal-liberty case the court could order release; however, the court left open any question concerning the appellant's handwritten filing because the complaint failed on the merits.
Motifs extraits
Although constitutional complaints are normally cassatory, an order to release a detainee is permissible when personal liberty is at stake and the decision is otherwise final and timely.
