This is the Large-Print Edition of Volume III of the Habeashelper Press PLRA Field Manual. The complete content of the 6×9 standard edition (ISBN 979-8-950298-94-3) is typeset here in large type on 8.5 × 11 inch pages following NLS/APH-aligned guidance for low-vision readers, prison law-library use, and clinical photocopying.Volume I of the PLRA Field Manual mapped the Prison Litigation Reform Act’s procedural gates. Volume II treated the substantive merits of § 1983 and Bivens conditions cases. Volume III turns to the parallel track: federal habeas corpus, AEDPA collateral review, and the companion statutes practitioners plead alongside § 1983 and § 2254 every working week.Thirty-one chapters trace the doctrine end to end. Part One (the custody/conditions divide) walks the Preiser v. Rodriguez line through Heck v. Humphrey, Edwards v. Balisok, Muhammad v. Close, Nelson v. Campbell, and Wilkinson v. Dotson. Part Two treats § 2254 habeas under AEDPA. Part Three treats § 2255, the savings clause as reshaped by Jones v. Hendrix (2023), and § 2241. Part Four treats RLUIPA, the ADA, RFRA, the FTCA, and the First Step Act. Part Five closes with immigration detention, private prisons, juveniles, civil commitment, and a three-volume strategy chapter.Fourteen appendices supply practice materials: an AEDPA limitations step guide; a procedural-default analysis template; annotated sample § 2254, § 2255, and § 2241 petitions; an FTCA SF-95 checklist; a compassionate-release motion template; RLUIPA and ADA-accommodation complaint templates; a Preiser/Heck decision tree; a habeas glossary; a table of cases; a table of statutes; and a subject index.
