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

1. “No evidence obtained by an officer or other person in violation of any provisions of the Constitution or laws of the State of Texas, or of the Constitution or laws of the United States of America, shall be admitted in evidence against the accused on the trial of any criminal case.”

2. “In summary, [appellant] was under arrest while he was in the hospital because his freedom was restricted and the DIC 24 [Texas Transportation Code statutory] warning had been read to him. Since he was under arrest, a sample of his blood could not be taken without his consent unless all the provisions of Section 724.012(b) were applicable. It is clear from the evidence that subsection (3) did not apply, therefore no blood could be taken from [appellant] without his consent. [Appellant] clearly did not consent to having his blood taken, therefore, the taking of his blood by the officer or any other person would be inadmissible under Article 38.23(a) of the Code of Criminal Procedure. 1”
