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 23 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““An essential element of the crime of possession of opium is the character of the drug. There is no proof establishing that the bottles allegedly taken from defendant’s room contained opium or any .other narcotic drug. All of the testimony relating to the result of the search of defendant’s motel room was highly prejudicial. The repeated objections to the admission of this evidence should have been sustained.””
