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 36 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The first question posed is whether a. search wrarrant was required to search the premises of the defendant .if he consented to the search. The answer is no. It is generally held that the owner or occupant of premises, or the one in charge thereof, may consent to a search of such premises and such consent will render competent evidence thus obtained. Consent to the search dispenses with the necessity of a search warrant altogether. . . . The second question is whether the defendant consented for the officers to search his premises . . . The Court found as a fact that the defendant, at the request of the officers, voluntarily gave them permission to search his premises . . . the ruling of a trial judge on a voir dire, as to the competency or incompeteney of evidence [adduced upon the search], will not be disturbed if supported by any competent evidence.””
