good faith exception  

Definición

  • The good faith exception to the exclusionary rule is an exception from the general rule that illegally seized evidence is inadmissible in a defendant's trial. The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that despite a magistrate's error on a warrant, if the police act reasonably in executing the warrant, then the evidence seized can be admitted at trial.
