Article VI: Habeas Corpus; Proceedings In Forma Pauperis

An application for a writ of habeas corpus must be made to the Superior Court. If made to this Court, the application must be transferred to the Superior Court. If the Superior Court denies an application made or transferred to it, renewal or submission of the application before this Court is not permitted. However, the applicant may, under 6 CMC § 7107, appeal to this Court from a Superior Court order denying such an application.
