What is the exclusionary rule?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Huebner, C078955 (Cal. App. 2017):

The exclusionary rule safeguards Fourth Amendment rights through its deterrent effect. (Herring v. United States (2009) 555 U.S. 135, 139-140.) But not every Fourth Amendment violation warrants exclusion. (Id. at p. 140.) "[S]earches conducted in objectively reasonable reliance on binding appellate precedent are not subject to the exclusionary rule." (Davis v. U.S. (2011) 564 U.S. 229, 232.)
