d. Writ of habeas corpus
A writ of habeas corpus lets a convicted person challenge the lawfulness of their detention or conviction after direct appeals are exhausted. The other options are unrelated: a motion for mistrial is made during trial, a writ of mandamus compels a government official to perform a duty, and a peremptory challenge is used to remove jurors.
