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.
““We do not believe that an informer must relate to police officers the specific address of the place in which he observed the unlawful activity. It is enough if, as here, the informant describes the location and provides the officers sufficient information so that they can accurately determine such address. It is apparent that the police officers, by personal observation and by the checking of official records, verified — through reliable methods — the specific address of the defendants’ residence.””
