Re: criminal law

Correct. Generally speaking, issues which are litigated during motion to suppress are not part of the trial. The evidence simply comes in without any discussion whether the search and seizure was lawful. How the evidence was obtained is not part of the trial unless directly relevant to some element of the crime.
