english: Well, Lord Mansfield had to make a decision right off the bat, because if James Somerset was a legal thing, he was not eligible for a writ of habeus corpus, only if he could be a legal person.
non_english: Lord Mansfield konal na vlastnú päsť. Ak bol totiž James Somerset len vecou, nemal na habeas corpus právo. Na to musel byť v právnom zmysle osobou.
