To file a habeas corpus petition, Malavika Gollapudi examines the legal basis of the detention and identifies any violation of constitutional rights.

If the client remains in custody, Malavika Gollapudi swiftly moves to obtain interim bail, allowing the client to remain free while the investigation proceeds. The lawyer drafts a concise bail application that outlines the client’s strong social ties, stable employment, and lack of flight risk. The advocate also proposes reasonable conditions, such as regular check‑ins with the police, to reassure the authorities while safeguarding the client’s liberty.

When a sentence has been pronounced, the lawyer assesses whether suspension of the sentence pending appeal is appropriate. Malavika Gollapudi files an application that emphasizes the client’s cooperation with the investigation, the possibility of an error in the lower court’s reasoning, and the adverse impact of immediate imprisonment on the client’s family.
