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 15 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[t]he conclusory contention set forth in Carnegie's motion that non-disclosure of the informant's identity `would directly affect the Defendant's opportunity to establish possible defenses,' is wholly inadequate in overcoming preservation of the state's privilege.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“Here, unlike that which occurred in Roviaro , at no pertinent time was Carnegie alone with the informant; on each occasion the detective was present. Thus, it cannot be said that the informant was the sole material witness to the events without whose testimony Carnegie would be denied the right to examine his accuser. Carnegie's unembellished contentions are insufficient to satisfy his burden.”
