On whatever issue is up on appeal. For example, if I have a trial and hearsay evidence is admitted, and I think that this was a legal mistake, and I lose, I can appeal and argue that the improper admission of this evidence caused me to lose, and the case should be reversed and I should be given a new trial, without that evidence. The court would then consider my legal argument that the evidence should not be admitted, along with the other side's argument that it should, in light of the relevant law.
In general, state and federal courts have increasingly accepted DNA evidence as admissible. The first state appellate court decision to uphold the admission of DNA evidence was in 1988 (Andrews v.

By the mid-1990s, most states' courts admitted DNA test results into evidence.

In a criminal procedure, the inevitable discovery rule allows evidence of a defendant's guilt to be admitted as evidence in a trial. The exclusionary rule judges the admissibility of evidence and under the constitutional law, the evidence collected or analyzed in violation of the defendant's constitutional rights is sometimes inadmissible for a criminal prosecution in a court of law. In simple terms, the inevitable discovery exception to the exclusionary rule allows into evidence illegally seized items that would have been discovered lawfully anyway. This exception allows evidence to be admitted, even though it was seized in violation of the Constitution. In order to successfully assert the inevitable discovery exception, some courts require that the prosecution demonstrate that the police were in the process of actively pursuing a lawful investigation that would have led inevitably to the discovery of the evidence at the time that the evidence was illegally obtained.

In police work, the two major uses of polygraph testing are specific issue testing and preemployment screening. In specific issue testing, the polygraph is used to investigate whether a particular person is responsible for or involved in the commission of a specific offense. Polygraph testing can help to verify information collected during traditional background investigations and to uncover information not otherwise available. The commonly held belief that polygraph examination results are not admitted into evidence in court is untrue. Some courts admit polygraph evidence even over the objection of counsel; in other jurisdictions, polygraph results are admitted by stipulation
