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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The fact that a search warrant is issued on Sunday does not render it invalid, unless expressly prohibited by statutory enactment. 47 Am.Jur. p. 520, par. 30. There is no such prohibiton in any of our statutes. The question was considered in State v. Conwell, 96 Me. 172 , 51 A. 873 , 90 Am.St.Rep. 333 , and we are in accord with what was said in the first four paragraphs of that opinion as furnishing a sufficient basis for the announced conclusion.”
