The U.S. Supreme Court created the good faith exception in the case of United States v. Leon (1984). The court held that evidence obtained by police officers in reasonable reliance on a warrant issued by a detached and neutral magistrate, but ultimately found to be unsupported by probable cause, could still be used against a defendant in court. This exception was created to prevent excluding reliable evidence solely because of a mistake made by a judge or magistrate in issuing a warrant.
