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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Where an automobile is the subject of a search the possibility of its movement and the concomitant disappearance of the contraband is a more critical factor than a court of the number of agents present who could be dispatched to a warrant issuing authority, United States v. Menke, 468 F.2d 20, 23 (3d Cir. 1972).” Commonwealth v. Berman, 262 Pa.Super. 410 , 396 A.2d 1237 (1978). We therefore find that the search of the vehicle was valid.”
