California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Lim, 102 Cal.Rptr.2d 604, 85 Cal.App.4th 1289 (Cal. App. 2000):
We shall conclude the trial court erred in ruling that the officer conducting the search could not rely on the warrant in good faith, under United States v. Leon (1984) 468 U.S. 897 [82 L.Ed.2d 677], because the officer had omitted from his affidavit in support of his application for the warrant certain favorable information that tended to support probable cause for issuance of the warrant.
We shall therefore reverse the orders dismissing the case and granting defendant's motion to suppress.
