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 21 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[I]f there is reason to believe that the arrestee had accomplices who are still at large, something less than probable cause-reasonable suspicion-should be sufficient to justify a limited additional intrusion to investigate the possibility of their presence .”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“If the court denies a motion to suppress evidence, the ruling is binding at the trial unless the court, in the exercise of its discretion, grants a hearing de novo on a renewal of the motion. A pretrial ruling denying the motion to suppress is reviewable on a motion for a new trial or an appeal of a conviction.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the dissente.g. Wiggins v. State““Buie emerged from the basement. He was arrested, searched and handcuffed by Rozar. Thereafter, Detective Joseph Frolich entered the basement ‘in case there was someone else’ down there. He noticed a red running suit lying in plain view on a stack of clothing and seized it.” Id.
