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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“there is “no reasonable or logical basis for any distinction between inanimate (tangible) and animate (testimonial) evidence." [People v. Dentine, 21 N.Y.2d 700, 703 , 287 N.Y.S.2d 427, 429 , 234 N.E.2d 462, 463 (1967) (Fuld, C. J., dissenting). See United States v. Schipani, 289 F.Supp. 43, 59 (E.D.N.Y.1968).]”
