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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Effective May 1, 1980, all arresting officers and other department personnel utilizing state vehicles must reside within the police jurisdiction of the city in which they are assigned unless written permission is approved through the chain of command by the Director of Public Safety. “Request for permission to live outside the police jurisdiction may be approved if it is for the convenience of the department or is not detrimental to the operation of the department. “All personnel who remain in their present residence are exempt from this order until they change residences, are reassigned or transferred. However, due to economic conditions, it may soon be necessary for those employees not living within the police jurisdiction of the city of their assignment to provide their own transportation to and from work.””
