Evidence Admissible No Matter How It Was Obtained
In Alabama the State Supreme Court ruled evidence is admissible regardless of how it was obtained. The ruling led to the return of lottery paraphernalia to Mobile for trial of Sidney and Mabel Prince on gambling ordinance violations. Circuit Judge D H Edington had suppressed the evidence, citing warrantless entry, and the Princes were fined $100 and six months in jail in Mobile city court. They appealed to Circuit Court and sought to keep or recover the evidence during that appeal.
