This article is a complete hoax. It says that it's extremely rare, but that it's derived from Jefferson's Manual. If you search the full text of the Manual (available here), not once does it mention any "prisoner's motion." Additionally none of the sources describe the prisoner's motion or mention it by name. A Google search (leaving out the normal judicial use of the phrase) for the term gives back only hits to Wikipedia or mirrors of our content. Steven Walling (talk) 20:04, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. This article has six "references" but none of them mention this motion. Unfortunately, the article creator has not been active on Wikipedia for over a year, so even warning him about this hoax would probably not accomplish anything. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 00:05, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
