Ohio Supreme Court May 20, 1981, No. 80-1339 (Burch v. Perini)

Per Curiam.

A writ of habeas corpus is an extraordinary writ which is customarily granted with caution when an individual has no adequate remedy at law. The purpose of this writ is to determine the legality of the restraint or custody under which a person is held. Freeman v. Maxwell (1965), 4 Ohio St. 2d 4, certiorari denied 382 U. S. 1017; In re Lockhart (1952), 157 Ohio St. 192.
