8 state decisions

Most-quoted passages

The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

1. “the magistrate or judge in issuing a warrant was misled by information in an affidavit that the affiant knew was false or would have known was false except for his reckless disregard of the truth[;] the issuing magistrate wholly abandoned his judicial role in [such a manner or under] such circumstances [that] no reasonably well-trained officer should rely on the warranty] ... [3] [the warrant is] based on an affidavit “so lacking in indicia of probable cause as to render official belief in its existence entirely unreasonable[;]” ... [or] [4] a warrant [is] so facially deficient — i.e., in failing to particularize the place to be searched or the things to be seized — that the executing officers cannot reasonably presume [the warrant] to be valid. [Citations omitted.]”
