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.
“"An officer may inquire about unrelated matters if the officer is not in a position to proceed with the investigation of the traffic violations or the issuance of the citation-for example, if the officer is waiting for a driver to provide identification or waiting for the results of a records check-but an officer may not inquire about unrelated matters as an alternative to going forward with the next step in processing the traffic violation, such as the writing or issuing of a citation. Accordingly, we have held, for example, that an officer's request for consent to a search unlawfully extended a traffic stop where there was no evidence that, at the time the officer requested consent, he was awaiting the results of a record check, was waiting for the defendant to provide him items needed to continue the traffic stop, or was engaging in any other steps related to the investigation of the traffic offense or the issuance of a citation for that offense."”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“(internal quotation marks omitted)). In this case, we conclude that the trial court did not err in denying defendant's motion to suppress, because O'Donnell's question to defendant regarding whether she had any drugs in her car took place during an unavoidable lull in the traffic stop. Importantly, O'Donnell did not question defendant about matters unrelated to the traffic stop”
