The following excerpt is from The People v. Spence, 93 Cal.Rptr.2d 607 (Cal. App. 2000):
In a petition for rehearing, the Attorney General contends for the first time that the exclusionary rule should not be applied to probation revocation proceedings. The contention is not properly before us because it was not raised in the trial court or in the respondent's brief. (People v. Whitson (1998) 17 Cal.4th 229, 244, fn. 4.)
