The defendant was convicted of a felony. [1] The trial court granted probation and directed that the defendant be placed in the charge and under the supervision of the county probation officer, and requiring that he, the defendant, be placed and kept in the psychopathic ward of the county farm.
Under the law as stated in People v. Mendosa,
Habeas corpus is a proper remedy where one is unlawfully restrained of his liberty. The defendant should be discharged from confinement at the county farm, and remain in the charge and under the supervision of the probation officer, subject to the lawful orders of the superior court. It is so ordered.
