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.

“'preintrusion.' Here the officer is located outside of a -5- constitutionally protected area and is looking inside that area. If the officer observes contraband in this situation, it only furnishes him probable cause to seize the item. He must either obtain a warrant or have some exception to the warrant requirement before he may enter the protected area and seize the contraband”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“We answer the certified question as follows: Where contraband is seen in plain view by police in the defendant's backyard from a point adjacent to the property and the defendant has exhibited an actual expectation of privacy, the police may not seize the contraband without a warrant in the absence of exigent circumstances. [Emphasis supplied.]”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“[PJrivacy should be recognized in areas where a person has exhibited an actual expectation of privacy, if society recognizes that expectation as reasonable.... The defendant in the present case exhibited an actual expectation of privacy by putting the marijuana behind a shed and erecting a plywood partition to obstruct the neighbor’s view.”
