Which action is required before court and before transport?

• A. In-custody Search
• B. Strip Search
• C. Digital Cavity Search
• D. Writ of Habeas Corpus AD PROSequendem (WHCAP)

Answer: (A)

Before court appearances and before transport, an in-custody search is performed to ensure safety and security. This routine check looks for weapons, drugs, or other contraband that could endanger staff, influence proceedings, or be used to escape. It helps guarantee nothing prohibited is carried into the courtroom or onto the transport, and it supports the integrity of the detainee’s custody. A strip search is more invasive and only justified under stricter policy and legal standards, not automatically required in every case. A digital cavity search isn’t a recognized or lawful practice. A writ of habeas corpus is a legal action challenging detention, not a processing step for transport or court appearances.
