Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The exclusionary rule states that courts will not accept evidence obtained by unreasonable search and seizure. The silver-platter and roots-of-the-tree rules relate to the use of evidence obtained by state and federal law enforcement agencies respectively, but do not directly address the issue of unreasonable search and seizure. The rule of thumb refers to a general principle based on practical experience, but is not specific to the legal system.
