THE STATE OF RIDGEWAY
IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF RIDGEWAY
takosull0,
Petitioner,
v.
Larkin_RBLX, in his official capacity as a law
enforcement officer in the Ridgeway State Police,
pursuant to 7 R. Stat. § 133.002.
Respondent.
Hon.
Case No.:
PETITION FOR HABEAS CORPUS
Proceeding without counsel, Petitioner takosull0 hereby files this Petition for Habeas
Corpus, and alleges as follows against Respondent:
PARTIES AND JURISDICTION
1. Petitioner takosull0 is entitled to file habeas corpus petitions subsequent to an arrest.
2. Respondent Larkin_RBLX is the proper Respondent in this matter in his official
capacity as a law enforcement officer with the Ridgeway State Police, per 7 R. Stat. § 133.002.
3. Jurisdiction and venue are proper as provided by 7 R. Stat. § 133.004.
GENERAL ALLEGIATIONS
4. On August 19, 2026 Petitioner takosull0 was in Ridgeway and arrested by
Respondent Larkin_RBLX.
5. The arrest on August 19, 2026 by Respondent Larkin_RBLX was for RVC § 1.03 -
Criminal Speeding.
PAGE 1
6. Criminal Speeding under RVC § 1.03 carries a maximum punishment of five (5)
minutes in prison and/or a $750 fine.
7. Petitioner was imprisoned for ten (10) minutes for the offense of Criminal Speeding.
8. Petitioner’s ten-minute imprisonment exceeded the five-minute statutory maximum,
resulting in Petitioner serving twice the maximum term authorized by law. Such imprisonment
constitutes an excessive and unlawful deprivation of liberty and infringes upon Petitioner’s
rights under the Eighth Amendment to the United States Constitution and Article I, Section V of
the Ridgeway Constitution. Article I, Section V provides that “nor can any person be justly
deprived of liberty, except by the laws of the land, or the judgment of the person's peers.”
Because RVC § 1.03 expressly limits imprisonment for Criminal Speeding to a maximum of
five (5) minutes, imprisonment beyond that limit deprives Petitioner of liberty beyond the
punishment authorized by law.
9. Because Petitioner’s constitutional rights were infringed upon by the government
through punishment exceeding the statutory maximum, and because the government has a duty
to act within the limits imposed by law and the Constitution, Petitioner sees that equitable relief
be the only just remedy. Specifically, Petitioner requests expungement of the arrest and resulting
criminal record associated with this offense, as Petitioner was subjected to a term of
imprisonment twice the maximum punishment authorized by RVC § 1.03.
PRAYER FOR RELIEF
WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully requests that this Court:
A. Issue a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 7 R. Stat. § 133.001 and 133.004 and
declare Petitioner’s prolonged detention unlawful;
PAGE 2
B. Order the expungement of Petitioner’s arrest and charge arising from the unlawful
detention described herein; and
C. Order the government to pay and reimburse Petitioner for all filing fees, court costs,
and other fees or costs incurred in connection with this matter; and
D. Grant such other and further relief as this Court deems just and proper.
Respectfully submitted,
/s/ takosull0
