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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““[T]o admit testimony of the results of a blood test, taken without defendant’s consent violated defendant’s constitutional right. Article 2, Section 21, says: ‘No person shall be compelled to give evidence which will tend to incriminate him.’ . . . This provision of the Constitution may be waived by defendant’s voluntary consent to the blood test, however, it can hardly be said that an unconscious person is capable of giving consent.” (Citations omitted)”
