Perhaps worth clarifying that not all states recognize this exception

[edit]

As currently written, the reader might possibly think that the good-faith exception applies throughout the United States, at all levels, to all searches later found unjustified. This is not the case. According to one article, Pennsylvania and New Mexico don't recognize this exception. And my current understanding of Heien v. North Carolina, based on the few briefs from it I've read, is that North Carolina too doesn't recognize the good-faith exception (or at least doesn't recognize it in that particular case). So it may be worth clarifying that the good-faith exception applies universally to federal searches but applies in state courts only in those states that recognize it. --Waldo (talk) 06:55, 1 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Expanding upon case law

[edit]

It is probably worth delving into more detail on cases like Leon. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cds2021 (talkcontribs) 01:50, 27 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
