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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““We hold Officer Dillow had probable cause to search Bickerstaff s vehicle for an open container. The odor of alcohol emanating from Bickerstaff s person, the odor of alcohol in her car, the breath test showing alcohol in her system, coupled with Bickerstaff s repeated denial that she had drunk anything alcohole, all combined to give Officer Dillow probable cause to believe an open container was in Bickerstaff s vehicle and to conduct a warrantless search of the car.””
