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.

The only court specifically provided for in the US Constitution is the Supreme Court. Article 3 establishes the Supreme Court ". . .and such inferioe courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish." Further, Article 1, Section 8, Clause 9 authorizes Congress to constitute tribunals inferior to the Supreme Court. The federal court system has several individual courts, but only the Supreme Court is mentioned in the Constitution
The 1961 U.S. Supreme Court case that made the exclusionary rule applicable to state criminal prosecutions is Mapp v. Ohio. In this landmark decision, the Court held that evidence obtained in violation of the Fourth Amendment, which protects against unreasonable searches and seizures, cannot be used in state courts. This ruling extended the exclusionary rule, previously applicable only to federal cases, to the states, reinforcing the protection of individual rights against unlawful government actions.

In Leon v. United States (1984), the Supreme Court ruled that the exclusionary rule, which typically prevents illegally obtained evidence from being used in court, does not apply when law enforcement officers act in good faith reliance on a search warrant that is later found to be invalid. The Court held that excluding evidence in such cases would not serve the rule's purpose of deterring police misconduct. This decision established the "good faith" exception, allowing evidence obtained from a flawed warrant to be admissible if the officers believed the warrant was valid.
