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 38 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[T]here are numerous signs indicating a person is under the influence of intoxicating liquor, and * * * an opinion on that condition can be reached without presence of all of the signs. * * * [E]ven a single objective indication of intoxication may be sufficient, depending upon the circumstances in each case * * [I]t is fundamental that each case must be decided on its own facts and circumstances and without regard to any formula.”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage“An after-the-fact scrutiny should not take the form of a de novo review. Rather, the duty of the reviewing court is simply to ensure that the officer had a substantial basis for concluding that probable cause existed at the time of invoking the implied consent law.”
