The appeal was dismissed because habeas corpus was not an appropriate mechanism to challenge the lawfulness of detention or the court's power to impose imprisonment where the applicant had not challenged his conviction; the remand order was made under the Bail Act and not susceptible to habeas corpus, and issues about s 30(2) require factual and appellate determination rather than summary habeas relief.
