MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Ani, 138 F.3d 390 (9th Cir. 1998):

where violation of an agency regulation does not raise a constitutional question and defendant cannot reasonably contend that he relied on the regulation, or that its breach had any effect on his conduct, he may not in a criminal prosecution seek judicial enforcement of the agency regulation by means of the exclusionary rule.
