George A. Pettibone’s lawyers submit legal documents to request an examination of the validity of his imprisonment. The document includes the criminal complaint, warrant for Pettibone’s arrest, and several affidavits from relevant individuals. Pettibone’s lawyers state Pettibone’s removal to Idaho was unconstitutional due to the fact that he was not allowed to seek legal counsel or verify the validity of his arrest with the state of Colorado’s court.
