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 62 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  3. “An information must allege each of the essential elements of a crime to be valid. 17 Fla.Jur. Indictments & Informations § 104 (1958). No essential element should be left to inference. (citations omitted) In the instant case, the information is defective because it does not allege that `the offender defied an order to leave, communicated to him by an authorized person.' Not only does it fail to state that a person with requisite authority demanded he leave, it does not even state that anyone ordered him to leave. See Section 810.09(2)(a), Florida Statutes (1975). An essential element of the offense is therefore omitted. Such an omission must be fatal, especially where the premises are public and not the home of a named person, and it is apparent that appellee's initial entry upon the premises was lawful. (citation omitted)”
