In what circumstances will the exclusionary rule be applied in a civil matter?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Christopher B., In re, 147 Cal.Rptr. 390, 82 Cal.App.3d 608 (Cal. App. 1978):

In Governing Board v. Metcalf (1974) 36 Cal.App.3d 546, 111 Cal.Rptr. 724, the exclusionary rule was held not applicable in a statutory proceeding concerning the dismissal of a teacher for "moral unfitness." The court concluded the special protection afforded children by law justified the use of illegally obtained evidence. (Id., at pp. 550-551, 111 Cal.Rptr. 724.)
