Definition von exclusionary rules im Englisch Englisch wörterbuch: plural form of exclusionary rule

exclusionary rule: a rule that provides that otherwise admissible evidence cannot be used in a criminal trial if it was the result of illegal police conduct
exclusionary rule: A rule that forbids the use of illegally obtained evidence in a criminal trial. In U.S. law, the principle that evidence seized by police in violation of the constitutional protection against unreasonable search and seizure may not be used against a criminal defendant at trial. The Supreme Court of the United States established the validity of the rule in Weeks v. U.S. (1914). In Wolf v. Colorado (1949) the court limited application of the rule to the federal courts; this decision was overturned in Mapp v. Ohio (1961), which required the rule to be applied universally. In the 1980s the court allowed an exception to the rule, holding that evidence obtained "in good faith" with a search warrant later ruled invalid is admissible
