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

  1. “In determining the appropriate remedy for a violation of G.L. c. 263, § 5A, we consider the conduct of the police, the exigent circumstances of the particular case, and other admissible evidence of the defendant’s guilt. [Commonwealth v.] Rosewarne, [ ] 410 Mass. [53] at 57, 571 N.E.2d 354 [ (1991) ]. [Commonwealth v.] Kelley, [ ] 404 Mass. [459] at 464, 535 N.E.2d 1251 [ (1989) ]. Dismissal may be deemed appropriate where there is deliberate or intentional misconduct by the police. Commonwealth v. Manning, 373 Mass. 438, 443 , 367 N.E.2d 635 (1977). In cases arising under c. 263, § 5A, we must consider the purpose of the statute, namely, to give the defendant a reasonable opportunity to obtain his own evidence, available only for a short period of time, regarding his alleged intoxication. Commonwealth v. Marley, 396 Mass. 433, 443 , 486 N.E.2d 715 (1985) (Liacos, J., concurring). Commonwealth v. Andrade, 389 Mass. 874, 881 , 453 N.E.2d 415 (1983). Thus, the remedy must be “adequate to cure potential or actual prejudice resulting from a violation of G.L. c. 263, § 5A,” given the particular facts of the case. Andrade, supra at 878-879, 881-882 , 453 N.E.2d 415 .”
