Yes. Although the Exclusionary Rule applied to federal cases since the decision in Weeks v. US, 232 US 383 (1914), the Supreme Court had resisted applying the rule to the states (Wolf v. Colorado, 338 US 25 (1949)) until the Warren Court held the circumstances presented in Mapp v. Ohio constituted an unacceptable Fourth Amendment infringement.

In Mapp v. Ohio (1961), the Supreme Court ruled that evidence obtained in violation of the Fourth Amendment cannot be used in a criminal trial.
The exclusionary rule states that evidence obtained in an illegal search or seizure may not be introduced at trial. This rule is based on the Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which protects against unreasonable searches and seizures.
Weeks v. US, (1914) was the case that established the "exclusionary rule," preventing evidence gathered through illegal or unreasonable search and seizure of a suspect from being used to prosecute the suspect in court. This Fourth Amendment Search and Seizure protection originally applied only to federal casesbecause the Supreme Court hadn't incorporated much of the Bill of Rights to the States in 1914.Case Citation:Weeks v. US, 232 US 383 (1914)
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.

Terry v. Ohio, 392 US 1 (1968)The Fourth Amendment, specifically the Search and Seizure Clause and the Fourteenth Amendment. Terry's attorney attempted to have the "stop and frisk" technique labeled an unreasonable search and seizure in order to have any evidence discovered during the search suppressed under the Exclusionary Rule.The case also raised the question of whether the petitioner's Fourth Amendment right against unreasonable searches and seizure was made applicable to the States by the Fourteenth Amendment.The US Supreme Court found the "stop and frisk" technique constitutional when a "reasonably prudent officer" has concerns for his or others' safety. As a result, evidence produced from the search may be used against the defendant in court.For more information, see Related Questions, below.
Evidence presented in court is not retained by the court. After the trial is concluded it is returned to the agency (agencies) that supplied it. If you need access to any of it you will have subpoena the agency to release them. If the case is still on-going (in trial, under appeal, etc), evidence in an ongoing case is never released. Your defense attorney had access to the same material, have you checked with them?
