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

  3. “The Constitution establishes the outer limit of governmental action with respect to individuals; beyond a specified point the state may not interfere in the lives of the citizens in the exercise of the police power. For this reason a warrant may not issue on mere suspicion or, even if based on probable cause, if the probable cause is supported only by a statement not made under oath. Yet nothing in the Constitution prevents the legislature from increasing the limitations on governmental action. This the legislature has done by enacting Article 162 requiring that affidavits be submitted to a judge to decide whether probable cause exists to issue the search warrant. To argue that the intent of the law is best found in the State Constitution is to disregard the legislature's authority to enact legislation to increase the rights held by the people under the Constitution.”
