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 24 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“argues that any consent by him to search the car did not authorize the officers to open the [container] in which the contraband was found. He cites State v. Corley, [ 201 Ga. App. 320 ( 411 SE2d 324 ) (1991) (physical precedent only)], and State v. Diaz, 191 Ga. App. 830, 832 (2) ( 383 SE2d 195 ) (1989). Both cases are distinguishable. In each, the officer asked merely for permission to “look inside” the vehicle. The court held that the extent of the consensual investigation did not extend to the seizure and examination of any items or containers in the car, which would constitute a full-blown search. In this case, as in Thomas v. State, 201 Ga. App. 292, 293 (1) ( 410 SE2d 786 ) (1991), and Garcia v. State, 207 Ga. App. 653, 656 (1) (c) ( 428 SE2d 666 ) (1993), the defendant consented to a full-blown search of his automobile. See also Gossett v. State, 199 Ga. App. 286, 287 (1) (c) ( 404 SE2d 595 ) (1991).”
