Fruit of the poisonous tree Fruit of the poisonous tree Fruit of the poisonous tree is a legal metaphor in the United States used to describe evidence that is obtained illegally. The logic of the terminology is that if the source (the "tree") of the evidence or evidence itself is tainted, then anything gained (the "fruit") from it is tainted as well. The doctrine underlying the name was first described in "Silverthorne Lumber Co. v. United States", 251 U.S. 385 (1920). The term's first use was by Justice Felix Frankfurter in "Nardone v. United States" (1939). Such evidence is not generally admissible in court. For
